[quote=Anonymous]If its making you miserable its not worth it. We had latch issues and i wore a nipple shield for 10 weeks and then kiddo figured it out and it was great and easy. We did supplement with ready to feed in the first week and like 3-4th as we had other medical things needing her to not be at breast. BUT if there are weight gain issues i would supplement asap and see how it goes for a week and then make a decision and go formula and not look back if that made sense. How old is your newborn? Under 4 weeks it sucks for everyone with various degrees of pain. And its ok stop then too if its not working. After that most kids sort out latch etc. if you want to keep trying i recommend a lactation consultant to come over and do a weighted feed and general help. Metropolitan breastfeeding was great.
