Latching was major concern. Baby was not able to latch properly. This led to cracked nipples,which was extremely painful. Breastfeeding became painful and uncomfortable.
Thankfully, with proper lactation counseling was able to feed comfortably.

Frequent feeding in the initial days was quiet challenging but looking at the lovy face of our lil 1 we would forget every other pain and automatically wake up to feed them. New mommies do sit and feed the baby.

Waking up every few hours to breastfeed my newborn was the biggest challenge I had faced.

During pregnancy everyday seems like a miracle and feels so confident about what women are capable of. The little one’s once they are into this world we moms get advice from everyone. Listen to everybody but do what feels right to you. Whether you are breastfeeding or formula maintain hygiene. Always wash ur hands with warm water, use clean soft cotton clothes as wipes. And always remember to use coconut oil. It is best for baby.

Believe in you !

First days would be challenging and happiness. Later on you see difference in sucking lips becoming stronger and you feel different cramps but it gets over with same milk what we give to baby :)

In the initial few weeks I had sore nipples. The best solution was nipple shields. I feel they are better than the available nipple creams and ointments.They helps healing and reduces pain.
