Nursing strike, again
« on: May 17, 2012, 04:21:20 am »
After 2 bottles at the childminder yesterday, Audrey has pint blank refused to even latch on, even including bedtime and overnight. So I have had to give her more bottles :'(

She is going back to the CM again today do that will be more bottles... I am so afraid that this is going to be the end of BF for us.

Thank you ladies :-* :-* :-* she refused all BFs last night and this morning BUT she did have a 'rest' on my boob (latched on but barely sucking) when she came home from the childminder and nursed at bedtime tonight. I'll take it.
