Breastfed/pumped since birth. Stopped and trying to build my supply back
I’m having difficulty with breast feeding. I have raw and bleeding nipples and believe I have developed clogged ducts.
Born via creation latched great and nursed well at hospital then latched got worse when we got home. She was jaundice so our pediatrician had me pump to make sure exactly the amount she was getting because she was losing too much weight and not gaining. I do want to breastfeed directly but she caused a lot of nipple trauma and mastitis already on left side. I have cleared the mastitis and finished antibiotics. Wanting to try again but afraid I’ll have bad nipple trauma again. She will not nurse with a nipple shield I have tried. I do have tricare but do not have a lot of money to pay out of pocket. My husband is currently deployed and will not be back state side til May. We have a 6 year old lil boy as well. He nursed ok but did require nipple shield he however didn’t mind the shield and eventually I was able to take the shield away and we made it to 6 months. I have never been an oversupply person I did have to give some formula for our first cause I did not make enough for him. She has had formula already and she is finally gaining weight so I don’t want to rock the boat with that.
I will give birth in Auburn, AL. I would like to have no epidural.
Someone who accepts insurance. I'm open to a birth center or hospital no medication. I would love a water birth.
Interested in learning the basics. I would like somebody who is quite qualified with certifications and education.
