My boy is 2 weeks old now. He has no problem with latching on for the past 1 week plus, usually able to latch on almost immediately.
However, for the past few days, getting him to latch on is like fighting a war. I would need to put him on for at least 20 times or more before he is able to latch on. He seems frustrated whenever he is unable to latch on, sometimes he would scream. I also feel frustrating as well when I do not know what's wrong.
The way I support my breast, carry him and hold his head has not changed so I really have no idea what make him unable to latch on.
By the way, he's sucking pacifier during the night as he cries a lot during that time (even right after feed). So I gave him a pacifier and he sleeps soundly. Does this have any connection to him not being able to latch on now?
