Few q's

1) clicking noise when feeding and loosing suction it doesn't seem to matter how I reposition her she still does it the whole feed and I think it might be giving her wind does that just go away eventually as she gets bigger? Also I think it might be because she tucks her bottom lip in which I can't seem to correct, but otherwise no pain in nipples

2) when initially attaching she takes 10 mins of attaching and pulling off before finally staying on , is there a reason or is she just still learning (she is 2weeks)? We kinda do a mix of Bla and me trying to attach her

3) do your emotions change when feeding? When dd starts asking for her feed a get a wave of anxiety and a sick sort of feeling of dread in my tummy and then again a few times while feeding and then i get really really sleepy, I don't have any problems feeding her or any pain so don't understand it could I be getting PND again?

Facts: baby will be 2weeks tomorrow , boobs are a size or 2 up from DD, nipples fine and normal size, I don't think I have an overly fast letdown, supply is fine, dd is fine and I think paed checked her for tongue tie in hospital already

Hi,
You are doing a great job (probably better than you know!) The first weeks with a new baby are really, really hard, even if you have had another baby before. Everything will get better as you and she get the hang of it you have only been on the job for 2 weeks.
Babies are clever and have their own way of regulating the flow - if it’s coming to fast they release the suction to control the flow - smart hey? This produces a click, but it it’s not hurting, no problem. Babies this young need a lot of holding and carrying, they find it difficult to settle alone - I wouldn’t jump to the conclusion that the clicking is making her windy. I wonder if your breasts are very full when you go to feed? Sometimes when there is no “give” in them it’s like trying to latch on to a basketball. Expressing a little bit at the start of the feed by hand (just into a nappy or the sink) may soften your breasts and make it easier to latch. I don’t know about anyone else, but in the early days post birth emotions fluctuate pretty much several times an hour - regardless of how you feed the baby. It would be normal to feel anxious after the difficulties you experienced last time. In most cases these feelings pass as you become more confident in your feeding. Go easy on yourself! it can be worthwhile to make an appointment with an LC to review things, it can really help build your confidence and iron out those last kinks in your breastfeeding relationship - well done.

Thanks :) I'm just so surprised how easy it has been this time I really feel like I'm not even trying and baby is doing all the work lol but it does still scare me for some reason
