Christi7233 :
My dtr gave birth via a traumatic C-section, baby in NICU x 1 day, under bili lights for 18 hrs day 2, discharge day 4, dtr back in the hospital day 5 x 3 days with infection/ +blood cultures. Did her best to BF throughout. Went to pediatrician on day 9 and baby was 1 oz under birthweight and they pressured her to triple feed. She did it for 5 days, baby struggling to latch after all the bottles, both miserable. Because of your videos she went back after 5 days and advocated for herself and her baby. She was depressed, stressed and all the joy was gone from breastfeeding and being a brand new mom. They agreed, she is now putting baby to breast almost exclusively, on demand, no nipple shields, great latch, happy baby, she pumps when she feels like it and gives an occasional bottle at night so she can get some extra sleep and they are doing great! Thank you so much!
