Help new to BF & bub screams & fights before feeding.
Hi Ladies, I had bub on Sat and came home Wed.
For the first 3 days bub wouldn't BF at all and it was only on Tues that she started feeding from me rather than being fed EBM through a syringe. So the day before I came home was when she started feeding from me, I've been having trouble since I got home.
Once she is on she feeds really well but it can take up to 15 mins to get her to attach & she gets very distressed, screaming and fighting me with her hands. I have plenty of milk, it just drips out but she seems to not want to suck to begin with.
Any help would be great why do you think she does this?
I had a lactation consultant in hospy so I may ring and see if I can get onto her today.
