How to latch after c section?

Had c section, wound still pain. Breast too big baby don't like to be latched. Lactation staff advised to use football hold but baby too frustrated to latch when hungry, don't want to open mouth when not hungry.

Same exp here. I used the football hold method and eventually baby got used to it. During the first few weeks, i let LO latch for a few minutes and then gave ebm in a bottle as she tend to latch very long and it made me tired. Maybe u could offer a bottle ebm first and then try latching again so ur LO can open his/her mouth. Jiayo!
