Breast strike

Is there any solution for breast strike? My LO is 3 months old n he can’t seems to focus when breastfeeding some times bottle too. It’s been almost a week. He doesn’t drink much when breastfeed and sometimes bottle feed he didn’t finish his milk as well. Should I find a lactation professional? #1stimemom #advicepls #breastfeed #worryingmom

Ay mama, breast strike is stressful lah! A week of not drinking much is worth getting checked out, banyak reasons boleh cause it, dari teething (early lah tapi possible), ear infection, thrush, or even just a developmental phase, so best lah you see your pediatrician first to rule out any medical stuff. If the doctor says LO is okay, then definitely consider seeing a lactation consultant because sometimes it's latch issues or oversupply/undersupply yang bikin baby frustrated, a few of my mum friends had the same problem and the LC made a huge difference, seriously. In the meantime, try kalau mau express sikit before latching so the flow isn't too fast or slow, and keep offering both breast and bottle without pressure. Hang in there, this phase will pass!
