AJP, the attachment was never an issue until he had the bottle and I started using lansinoh so I'm wondering if it has something to do with either of those two things: with the bottle the milk flows with little need for him to suck whereas on my boob he needs to put in some effort to get it flowing so maybe he's getting lazy and prefers the bottle? And with the lansinoh, it makes my nipples really slimey when he puts his mouth on them and I think it's hard for him to get a good grip and attach right even when I've tried to get as much of the stuff off first...sighhhh

OceanPrincess, that bottle sounds really good! I will defintely look out for something similar.

shellbell, how did DD sleep last night after being unwrapped? The engorgement has settled down here, I just have to keep massaging out the lumps to try prevent it. It's just my stupid nipples getting me down

Speaking of salt baths, I'm going to go have one now while Leon is asleep. I didn't need stitches but I do have some grazing/small tear which is pretty painful!!

Leon is sleeping SO well! He has a feed, burped, wait for poo, change nappy, on boob again until he's out of it, then swaddled and put in his snuggle bed where he'll sleep until the next feed. He is currently feeding every 4 hours like clock work! We have cuddles and play time while waiting for his poo! I just can't wait for my nipples and tear down there to heal and then it would be perfect...
