Hey could you post this for me please 🙂

My baby girl is just over 6 weeks old and when she was born I tried breastfeeding but after a few days I decided to stop because she couldnt latch on properly and i didnt get much support from the midwives.. they’d just put her on and then leave… when I got home I decided to express which went well for a week but then life took over with people calling and I could never fit in the time to express enough so slowly my supply went down to nearly nothing… so for about 4 weeks my baby has been formula fed. Now that everything has calmed down I really want to try breastfeeding again which I’ve read is possible… I’m just wondering if anyone has tried this and what they did to get their milk supply back and help baby to latch on.. TIA xx

  • Where abouts are you? Do you know of any support groups near you.? No professional advice but currently bf and think your amazing to want to try and re-latch the baby and it is possible to get your milk supply back.
