If you are set on breastfeeding please don't be put off, it was a roller coaster for me too, in the beginning.

The starter bottles only have an hour on them from the bottle but in the early days I used to tip what wasnt needed into a sterilised bottle and pop in the fridge for later. I understand how frustrating it can be my 6eknold has just been diagnosed with tongue tie and I'm so so sore, lansinoh has been my best friend until now, his latch has become so much stronger and I'm ready to give up and can't wait soon enough for the referral to come through.

If anyone should feel a failure it is me as I nearly starved my baby to death trying to breast feed a baby who could not transfer any milk.
