How long will it take for a mother to know how to take care of her own baby ? My baby 25 days old and I’m under confinement care by my confinement nanny … My nanny , mother in law & helper are taking turns to care for her. Everyone kept telling me they want me to focus on myself first. Im grateful to my family to come in to care for her . But it’s almost close to her1 month and i barely know how to take care of her when the nanny goes . I feel like I don’t bond much with her and she prefers the bottle over my chest. I end up have to exclusively pump only and combine feed her as I’m also under supply. My husband and I have tried to care for her for just 3 hours and we can barely manage as she starts to cry like crazy . I think she can sense we barely can care for her.. We’re trying to do more hands on but sometimes I just feel like I shouldn’t be near her cause I think she can sense my anxiety Any advise … #FTM #pumping #help1sttimemom

It’s been 2 weeks and each time I tried to BF my baby, she either gets fussy or push me away. Got a lactation consultant to help on the latching, but she seems to have preference to the bottle & consultant says baby is very gassy. Baby kept crying as we tried to get her to burp or pass gas, but she refused or “don’t like to” according to the consultant. After a few tries with the consultant she finally burp and we managed latch on. Yet after the consultant leaves, she’s back to her old ways. How long does this phrase last? It’s been affecting me as baby can sense I’m tense and she seems fine with others #FTM #breastfeeding #lowsupply

Emotional disassociation after birth
Is it normal to feel like your baby is not yours ? I miss her when she’s not around yet when I look at her I don’t feel she’s mine. She’s 3 days old, induced natural birth, needed assisted delivery cause her heart-rate drop at the last moment. Body not producing milk for her so needed to feed her formula at hospital. Throughout the mayhem, when KKH let her latch on me, her body & sucking sound sooth me abit. Yet I still cannot fully accept she mine . Cried each time I think about it . When will this stop #askmommies #FTM
