Am I A Bad Mother?

Just delivered few days ago and my baby refused to latch on me no matter wat. Seen lactation consultatnt n they also tried but cant. Have milk but due to lack of e grip, baby doesnt like to latch on. My boobies gt engored so painful and i just had csect. Wound pain, contraction pain, boobies pain. Nt getting good slp n rest. Am thinking of stopping breastfeeding but yet i felt y so many other mummies can do it but i cant. Am i being a bad mother?? ?

Hi mummy I just given birth 3 days ago and also via c sect..for me my baby latches better on the right side den left side..for the wound pain etc just take painkillers..i actually dun wan to take painkillers but in the end I chose to take..I am also in the midst of recovering..just find which bf position is better like for me c sect I am using football hold position..cradle doesn't work for me..so u can trial and error as well..besides bm my baby is also feeding on formula as my bm is not enough..dun give up! Eventually if need to feed your baby formula den just do it so long baby is well-fed :) Just eat well etc. relax dun be stress perhaps the supply will suddenly kick in
