Breastfeeding after baby is 2 months old

I have stopped breastfeeding for now & giving breast milk through bottle. Is it ok if i were to start breastfeeding back once the baby is a lil big around 2 months old? Cause i did try breastfeeding & since bby mouth is small i can't seem to get a good latch & my nipples are getting sore.

I'd recommend reducing your frequency of latching but not entirely stop for now to prevent nipple confusion. My baby didn't recognise the nipple as milk after I stopped for too long, and then refused to latch anymore. My own fault, makes me sad still.

I stopped for about a month, and retried at 3 months. By then it was too late.

Try football hold position and put pillows below your elbow for support. It helps me to guide my little one’s mouth to my nipple better

Yup, as long as baby is willing to latch.
