    It's good news that things have improved. It still does sound like there is a bit of an issue with the attachment though - ideally you are looking for no compression or pain. At that age many mums do find the night feeds tricky though. It should improve as he gets a bit bigger.

    In the meantime, doing as many feeds as you can with Baby Led Attachment should help. For those night feeds, maybe you could try a dream feed so that he doesn't wake so hungry, or perhaps set your alarm and wake him just before he'd normally wake so that he's not starving when he attaches.

    Best of luck with it hun. You are doing really well.
