Breast refusal

Last couple of days I've had the same thing happening its very weird as she has always had breast first and all of a sudden she doesn't want breast milk at all

Yes I’ve also had the same with my 12 week old and it’s so frustrating! I tried a trick where I used a dummy that she’d take and then swapped it out for the breast. I read you shouldn’t do that but I wanted to get her fed!

I’m going through this right now but he would also refuse the bottle so he just doesn’t feed! Only way is to catch him sleepy while waking up from a nap or about to go down and shove a boob or bottle in 🥲

I’m just starting to go through this now, he latches for a few seconds then pushes away and screams 😭

I was told that your let down can become to strong and it upsets Bub, so do some hand expressions or pump to get past the first let down then let baby have a go

I had to same thing with my daughter at an earlier age. I went to see a lactation consultant and she suspected it was nipple confusion but I also think she wasn’t getting full from my supply.

I ended up having to drop the breastfeeding and only pump due to poor weight gain.

But I highly recommend visiting a lactation consultant as they go through the feeding with you in person and try to go through solutions with you as well. The appointment was organised by Triple 1 and their contact details should be in baby’s blue book.
