[QUOTE="zand, post: 1407629, member: 85197"] yes that's true, but some babies simply aren't strong enough to suck for long enough to increase the milk supply. My son started to give up as soon as he latched on because it was just too difficult for him. I settled with letting him have what milk I had (probably about an ounce per feed) and then topping up with bottle figuring that whatever I could give him myself was better than nothing. The anytime any place thing worked well with my 2nd son who went on to refuse pureed food altogether and was fully breastfed for 6 months. Then he was ready for mashed food rather than puree which he loved. He would never take a bottle either, going straight onto a beaker :rolleyes: I think you just have to work with what you have and do the best you can without beating yourself up. [/QUOTE]
