[quote=Anonymous]Hi OP, I was exactly where you are at 1 month postpartum. My recommendation is actually to keep trying to breastfeed. I thought it would never work because it really didn’t for the first month. I have flat nipples and it was impossible to get baby to latch. But I just kept occasionally trying. I tried nipple shields, different positions, times of day, etc. Every day I would try at least once and finally around a month And a half it started working, and by three months postpartum I stopped pumping altogether. I also combo fed from birth to make my life easier, and I think that was one of the smartest things I did, so I recommend starting supplementing a bit with formula to give yourself a break.[/quote]
