Did anybody's baby have a super crazy strong suck? The LC consultant called her a Hoover sucker. I tried breastfeeding in the hospital and it was insanely awfully painful and the LC said I might need the negative pressure of my milk to come in before I can breastfeed. She also warned me that it may not be possible at all with a baby that sucks so strong-that while it sounds ideal, it may simply be too painful. She advised I pump for now, which I've been doing every 3 hours during the day and I can go one six hour stretch at night.
Did anybody else's baby suck TOO strong? How'd it work out? My milk should come in today probably. It's been a milky yellow color the past 24 hours. I realize I may be an exclusive pumper and I'm ok with that, too-I love watching DH feed her :). So I will do both if I can.. She takes a bottle just fine in the special care nursery, thankfully! Just wondering if this is a common thing or not and how it worked out for some
