Ds has had a cold the last few days... and it's my fault, I've let myself get away with a really crap latch because he was so sleepy all the time and didn't want to open his mouth wide at all.
Now he's a bit better... but he just isn't opening his mouth wide enough, still! He is basically sucking on the nipple, I know he's getting some milk because his nappies are wet (the occasional poo) and he possets up sick, but I know it can't be enough because it just isn't that big gaping mouth he used to have!!
I've tried stroking his mouth with my nipple, waking him up fully by stripping him down to his nappy, everything... but he doesn't want to do it, what do I do???
