[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My wife and mom are helping me but I cannot sleep even when given the opportunity. Both also need sleep and night is when it’s the worst with cluster feeding. Mt wife is pushing me not to try the bottle till 2 weeks per our LCs advice. [/quote] I don’t think this is really based on anything. You can pump those feeds if you’re worried about your supply but it doesn’t have to be at the exact same time as nursing, you can shift things a bit to try and get a longer stretch of rest. Anecdotally I supplemented with both in the first few weeks and they both ended up being great nursers on 100% breastmilk. I know more babies that refused bottles when they were never given one until they were a lot older (like starting daycare at 3-4 months). Good luck op. Agreed that further checkout/work up would be a good idea.[/quote]
