Thanks so much girls. Bloody hormones. I just get all teary reading your posts, lol.
Went to see the MCHN today who is also a LC and got her to watch another feed to check it was right b/c it's still feeling stingy for me sometimes on the left side and sometimes even when it doesn't hurt the nipple doesn't look the right shape when she comes off so thought something was wrong again. Although my nipples are heaps better except for the one crack on the left.
She showed me how to do the football hold so that I can do that and maybe it will help with the crack. Not sure if it's helping or not, it still seems to open up after But anyway she said my technique was perfect and attachment was perfect. So I have no idea what it wrong sometimes when it hurts, maybe it's just the crack hurting, but it feels stingy all over!! I am just a mystery. She just told me that it will get better/easier. So maybe I just have to wait for my nipples to toughen up. Hurry up!! I would like to enjoy breastfeeding and be able to go out in public sometime!! Oh well, every day is getting closer to when I can hey!!
Still feeling sick b/c of the infection but hopefully when that clears up I will feel a whole lot better and everything else won't seem so hard!
