I am also pumping exclusively. Will latch on when bb is crying very badly ( latching does sooth him down though I think it's a bad habit..so far it only happen twice ) or when I need some blocked ducts or hard lump to clear. This allows me to monitor how much he is drinking and also feeding...

Miss freedom, you can try to use nipple shield to help with your latching problem. Tats Wat the LC advised, till bb is a little bit more older u can try direct latch again. I need bb latch on to clear my blocked ducts so can pump out fully, if not they form hard lumps which are painful. So...

My bb also can't latch well so the consultant suggest using nipple shield to get bb to suck on the nipple to help with the engorgement. However this is only a temporary solution. She ask mr to try latching on again abt a week or two later cos bb tend to latch better when they are older. Now I...
