[quote=Anonymous]I haven’t gotten to the end of this thread but OP, my 1st had major latch issues and tore my nipples to shreds. It was terrible. I cried, he cried, my DH was distraught. I ended up doing a lot of what you are doing. Pumping around the clock, trying the nipple shield and syringe feeding. After lots of back and forth, it was determined that he did in fact have a small tongue tie that was impacting his latch. The ENT refused to clip it though because he said it wasn’t that bad despite all of our troubles. By the time he was 6-7 weeks, his mouth had gotten bigger and stronger and he started latching like a champ. I nursed him until he was 2. He refused a bottle from me but would take one at daycare or from DH as long as I wasn’t in the house. Just wanted to share. You can get through this. You are doing an amazing job mama![/quote]
