Congratulations on your new bub. With my first, I wish someone had told me that BFing was a learned skill, for both Baby & Mum, and that it can take a few weeks for it to really "click". But it is so worthwhile persisting with it if you are able to, because ultimately it is so much more convenient than BFing - anywhere, anytime, and no cleaning up afterwards . And as others have mentioned, it's the most amazing food for your baby, but it's also physiologically brilliant for you. It's can be really challenging in the first couple of months because it can feel like all you do is feed, change nappies, feed, change spewy clothes, feed... but the fog does eventually clear, and if you stick with it I guarantee that you'll be so proud of yourself for seeing it through.
