Does your daughter have oral ties? It should never hurt to nurse Have you worked with a lactation consultant?

I sometimes have to gently push my baby's chin down as I go to latch him, otherwise he latches too shallow and it HURTS. I almost quit because of it. There was so much pain and crying involved.... So thankful I didn't though! I am now 5.5 months into our breastfeeding journey! Reach out if you have questions or want to chat!

I had clogged ducts and bigger boobs and am hypoallergenic so I struggled with it and ended up supplementing and then stopped at 5 months. Try nipple shields those helped me and good nipple creme

@Christina🤱🏼🍂☕️♈️ the nurse claims she doesn't but I'm starting to think she does because when she latches it feels like she pinching me

@dana nurses can’t make proper diagnosis. I’m in a tongue tie group on fb and they are extremely helpful with finding providers in the area you live in. I never got my son’s revised because we didn’t have issues.
