DD has breastfed since birth, no problems after having her tongue tie cut at 5 weeks. She's had a temperature at the start of the week and had a sore mouth. She fed weds morning but screamed weds night because she couldn't latch. Fed thurs morning but with a lazy latch (didn't hurt though) outright refused yesterday evening without trying and this morning. She originally refused tonight but then had a go, but was latching like she did with her tongue tie, which with teeth is just plain biting! Does anyone have any tips to help? She is eating properly again for the last couple of days but still seems to struggle to latch. My breasts are still soft but feel a little bit heavy. No leaking or engorgement...yet! will my supply dry up if she doesn't start again in the next couple of days? Sorry that's so long!!!
