Gudevening mamas trust everyone is doing fine....plz help a worried mama. My DD had her 6weeks immunization last week Wednesday.. They gave her this vaccine given in d mid thigh(pentavalent) that makes babies cry so much.

Hi everybody,
My baby was born on the 19th of may and ever since he was born he has refused sucking his mothers breast as we feed him NaN.
What I want to ask is that is there any disadvantage to this formula we are giving him and also what do we have to do to make him to accept breastfeeding cos he will cry move his hands all in an attempt not to breastfeed...any suggestions will be tried.

Congratulation sir on your bundle of joy!!!
From my little experience, the mom should try and be putting it in his mouth little by little. She should squeeze the nipple and put it in his mouth. Little by little, not forcefully he will learn that mama milk is sweeter than NAN. Other mama, will shook mouth. Let me copy them for you.

I've heard of bitter breast milk, mine wasn't bitter, cos i tasted it. I am saying this cos my lo is almost exclusively formula fed, he refused to suck but happily took the bottle (formula) and expressed breast milk (also in bottle) and the highest I could produce was 30 mls. Tried all the tricks and advice here and everywhere to produce more, but didn't get much result. Even strange was the fact that all through the 2 months I expressed and finally stopped, i didnt have any form of engorgement/pain experienced by mums whose los didnt suck.

From your post, it is evident you are lactating well so I suggest you start to express breast milk every two hours to feed ur lo, its a lot of work, and don't stop putting baby to breast. There might be a change sooner or later.

However, if it doesn't work, don't put too much pressure on yourself. Continue with the formula. I've been using Aptamil and my baby is a jolly, healthy and happy child to the glory of God. Get as many good bottles as you can afford, wash with warm water and sterilize (hot water preferably) after each each feed. Maintain very good hygiene when handling your lo and feeding things. This is very important

Akorkor.

Some babies will refuse breast for no other reason but the hardwork involved in the first few days.
Funny enough this hard work is necessary for jaw strengthening and some other things in the mouth.
What you can do is use a breastpump and give him breast milk with a bottle.
Once the baby taste the milk, hopefully he'll want to suck direct.
He's just a few days old, keep putting him to breast, one day he'll grab sotey una go beg am to leave the boobies alone cheesy

Thank you very much for this reply. My wife is producing milk and once in a while we squeeze it out for him to drink via his bottle and he consumes them all but my wife barely makes 30ml and she is always complaining of the pain but I have told her to endure.
We have a neighbour that told her to drink konu anya that it will facilitate her breast milk increase though we keep trying but my fear is that the way he cries and struggles when we want to breastfeed him will not lead to something negative.
Can I change from NaN to Aptamil without any negative consequences

Taaa!!! By who? I drank cold water throughout my preggy days. The only time I didn't drink was maybe I had catarrh. Even while am on labour bed, my nurses gave me ice packs to chew. Plenty ice o cheesy grin

I had similar experience, it's painful and heartbreaking to see your lo crying for food. Continue with the Nan it's very OK. Let her drink enough water and pap it helps and also rest often. My lo finally began to suck at 7wks then stopped again and picked up again at 9wks. I had to express every 2hrs but it was painful as I couldn't produce enough milk even with pap. At 6wks her weight didn't increase as she still looked new born . Pls b patient with him, always put him to suck and follow the accurate measurement for the formula 4scoops for 120ml. Now she is she has added much weight,2.5kg at birth, 2.7kg 6wks and 4kg 10wks.
