DD2 is 17 days old today I am trying EBF after struggling and giving up with my previous dd 5 years ago could do with some advice.
DD2 was born at 3.37, then 3.12 by day 6, 3.10 day 8, 3.16 day 12 then 3.26 by today
I have had good support from excellent midwives and peer to peer BFC am feeding 2-2.5 hourly in day 3-4 at night but also with 1 big cluster feed.
lots dirty and wet nappies, had jaundice but now almost gone. alert when awake looks healthy etc.
have been switch feeding 3-4 sides at least, compressions, waking when sleepy feeding; by burping, changing nappy etc.
does this sound like we are going in the right direction?
