Breastfeeding help
Hey guys so I just delivered a few days ago so I’m new to the whole breastfeeding thing but I finally figured out how to get a good latch. However, my baby keeps pushing out the nipple then wanting it back in her mouth, and if I take out my nipple she gets fussy but it also seems like she’s not hungry or doesn’t want it. I also checked the diaper and massaged her in case of gasiness. What do I do?

She is still learning.its frustrating AF but worth it my 3 week old still does it sometimes but once young get that good latch through their fussiness and hunger it’s beautiful
Ask your pediatrician if they have lactation specialists that you can speak to!
I’d say invest in a nipple sheild!! It definitely helped me. I got one from my doctor before being discharged.. my babygirl is two weeks and in these past couple days, she’s been latching on both nipples with no shield and no problem. The shield helped in the beginning
