While I truely love breastfeeding my baby girl and we really haven't had any problems up to this point as far as latching issues, or supple problems etc. My biggest frustration was feeling like I constantly had a baby attached to me but I reflected on this feeling and changed my attitude about things. Now I have adapted and it's a nice time for us both to relax. She has also become more efficient at eating too I think because we do not spend as much time nursing every time now, it use to be at minimum half an hour up to an hour and now it's general ten to twenty minutes.

Well that's easy! I've basically got inverted nipples and it's almost impossible for a baby to latch on. I had to use these plastic things the nurses gave me to have any hope at all. As it is, my girls gave up on it very early and I was only able to nurse my son for a month.

One of my friends had to use those plastic things I don't think she had inverted nipples I think they were just really small and her daughter had trouble latching. At any rate she said they were a huge pain in the butt.

My biggest frustration while BF was when I would have sore nipples and I had to nurse on them... other than that BF was fine!
