For the first time, breastfeeding is hard :(

Your DH sounds gorgeous Teeki. So many women mistakenly think they have supply issues just because they have inherited the expectation that a newborn shouldn't want to feed every two hours or that an unsettled bub automatically means not enough milk or because their milk might be slower to fully come in etc then when they start introducing formula top ups lower supply does become real. Of course supply can be a real issue in the first instance but there is help out there.

Teeki i am very happy for you, it sounds like you had a really awful start to BF this time around. X

Respect. You fed with your nipple half falling off.

It sure felt like it sometimes! But he's a bit of an exaggerater I'm sure there are lots of others who've had it much harder than I did, I was just totally thrown by how not easy it was compared to DD.

Thanks ladylove, I think he's pretty great
