TaffyLou - I have this problem too. I wasn't able to bf Lucie, although I had enough milk to feed the entire ward I think! But then Lucie had other problems including jaundice which contributed to her tiredness and inability to suck. I certainly don't think it means a definite no to bf, it may just be a little more difficult. I am hoping to bf #2. I actually saw a lactation consultant before Lucie was born and she didn't seem to think I would have a problem. I can recommend your friend maybe calls the Australian Breastfeeding Association line - they were great and put me in touch with the lactation consultant that I saw. She also may want to consider using nipple shields, or at least grab some to take to the hospital just in case. I hope this helps. Just make sure if your friend can't bf, she has lots of support and doesn't put herself through all the stress and guilt that I did, it was tough. And if worst comes to worst and she really wants bubba to get some breastmilk in the early weeks she can do what I did and express and then bottle feed the baby. But fingers crossed she will be fine!
