TRIGGER WARNING!! I should have added a trigger warning to this video! My sincerest, heartfelt apologies to those that have already watched the video without being warned, I talk about Felix's birth Between 3 and 9 minutes in the video, some may find it distressing so please please skip it if you think that would apply to you. Sorry again for not making this clear in the first instance. Sending love to all that have experienced birth trauma 💗💗💗💗

My son was a ‘clicker’ too. Took ages (and a blistered nipple) to work out he was putting his tongue above the nipple and clicking down across it! They think my breast was too big for his little mouth (once they ruled out tongue tie). Long story short, a nipple protector worked a treat - it elongated the nipple enough to get him started. Once he had finished his guzzling stage and had started the slow feed, I could take it off and feed him normally. It really stopped the air intake too. Surprisingly it helped my friend out as well, once she had the right size. Give it a try and best of luck'

I just found your yt...your joy is contagious..ty as I was having a day. You have an adorable clan and are very blessed! I also have 3 sons and 2 daughters. I have nursed all 5 of my babies. My breast feeding coach informed me that my 1st was a sleepy and lazy latcher..lol I know how annoying hearing that was..lol. It was suggested by my coach to completely undress him, wipe his face with a cool cloth and make him be rather uncomfortable and fully awake. Which was awful, but it worked and within a few days he was latching on without all the fuss, it was very hard on the both of us, but it helped with all the gas and tummy troubles. Good luck and happy days ahead with your lil clan.

I have breastfed three babies and my son is still going strong. He got a lot of air when he was a tiny baby from trying to eat to fast. You can try taking him off and putting him on again. That way he doesn't try and nurse to fast. Felix is so cute!!! All your boys are perfect 🥰 Riddly (I hope I spelled that right) will give up his pacifier when he is ready. my cousin had one until she started kindergarten then she would go to school and leave it in the car until she came home. It was comical she didn't want the other to see it.
@missmckennaslifeleverage60283 жыл бұрын
Thank you, I'll definitely try that! I think I have a fast let down because that's when it starts happening, plus it's really fricking painful, it's like major boob cramp 🤣 Ridley was doing pretty good with just using it at bedtime, but then when school stopped and I got more and more pregnant, he seemed to want it more often, I think it's like a comfort blanket. He never takes it out the house but he always has to have 2 at home, one to suck and one to stroke his nose with 😍 I've made more allowances recently because he's been quite overwhelmed with the changes at school and home but as things settle I think (hope) he'll need them less and less 💕💕 Hope you and your family are well xxxx

I know you have your hands full, but you sound so happy. Enjoy the time with them if you can because the time flies by. He really is a beautiful baby!

I have 3 boys myself and I can completley relate to the bonding thing. My first 1 I felt very bonded with and the 2nd I felt a little disconnected from him (I got diagnosed with post partum) and my 3rd was just like you all 3 where just like you explained so I know exactly what you mean
@missmckennaslifeleverage60283 жыл бұрын
It's weird isn't it? I had post partum really really bad with Trysten and then a little with Ridley so I was worried I'd get it again this time but so far so good 🤞I felt really disconnected during my pregnancy with Ridley too so maybe that contributed to it? I don't think enough people talk about it, I appreciate you sharing your experience, it's quite a taboo subject so I feel sorry for the mums who suffer in silence. Hopefully it will become more acceptable to talk about it and more mums will know that they're not alone ❤️❤️

See, I thought it was supposed to really numb you and you just felt sensations and pressure rather than pain! With the first one not working with Trysten, I'm starting to think I'm immune or something, 😂 I kept saying "if it's this painful WITH an epidural, what would it have been like WITHOUT it?" I think I read somewhere years ago that epidurals aren't as effective for people with fibromyalgia so maybe there's some truth in it? 🤷 Who knows! Can't believe they had to wake you up though!
