dear felicity,
do not feel bad, i went thrg crying my heart out once after hearing negative comment. but after struggling and having comfort fr hubby, i know sometimes things will not go on as planned.
even if u bottle feed, baby might not have nipple confusion. mine only have confusion btw pacifier and bottle teats. he is ok with latch and bottle since young. and to me, as long as we mummy give him our best, regardless of partial fm or full bm. yours still manage to take yr milk.
my flow ony increase after 1 mth, so pls do not be impatient. tell yrself, be strong try all means to get more milk. but not negative ideas or crying which will decrease yr milk flow when stree, u want the best isnt it, so please not cry.
if things still dont get better, why not change method. rules are saying bb are the best sucking machine, but why are there still mothers doing exclusive pumping instead? there is still chance. you can still opt for exclusive pumping every 3 hrly, even in night, and bottle feed with express milk. een if each session is less, by then u might combine and give a full meal fr yr bb.
i was extreme few months ago after confinement:
i drank fenugreek 3 times a day, another day cook papaya soup for myself a whole pot of it an drink thrgout, and date water another day. kept drinking so much that my stomach was bloated. and it does help. remember these water are not miracle, they need time to work, be patience.
