Nipple confused

Aw, mama, yan talaga ang pinaka-stressful part ng breastfeeding, parang personal rejection kahit alam mo naman hindi yan, hindi ba? A few of us mums went through the same thing at 3 months kaya you're not alone, at honestly, it's possible to bounce back from nipple confusion, pero kailangan ng consistency at patience with baby at sa sarili mo. Dapat mag-try ka ng skin-to-skin more often, maybe express a little para mas soft ang nipple, at if possible, limit the bottle to maybe once a day muna para ma-relearn ng baby na mas better ang breast, also, Mama's Choice Nipple Cream really helped some of my friends kasi mas comfortable ang latch pag walang pain, so baby is more willing to try. The thing is, your lola's comment about "ginagutom mo" might be coming from worry, pero you know your baby best, so stay confident lang, mama, ang stress mo ay pakiramdam din ng baby. If it continues, best to check with your OB or lactation consultant para makakuha ng proper latch assessment, because you CAN still make this work at tatama na yan, promise!
