Hi mummies
I just delivered my baby two days ago and as my milk has not come in, I chosed enfalac for him while I latch him occasionally to stimulate milk flow. Till now there is no colostrum yet.
The lactation consultant said baby had enough supplies for first three days and should not give him formula. However I see him cry so pitifully my hubby and I can't bear it as he seems hungry so we allowed him formula. Pls advise what should I do? I still worry cos my colostrum have not come and think I didbt latch him enough. The problem is overtime I try to latch him, he would suckle a while then fall asleep. Other times he suckle a while then lost interest.is it cos I Dont have milk hence he reject my nipple or he's too comfort to formula?
I would want to bf him totally. Please help!
