I'm feeling so demoralised every time it's time for feeding. My newborn used to be very easy to feed and burp, but at ard 1 week old, he has been very prone to colic. Now, it takes longer to burp him. He struggles, screams, and cries, turns red, and it's so difficult to burp him when he is like this. He also guzzles down milk so quickly, which is also a reason for the gas. My parents are caring for him while I recover, and they are able to handle him. In between recovering and pumping sessions, I have tried feeding him a few times, but every time, it leaves me frustrated and demoralised that I can not handle him during feeding sessions but when my parents step in, he is handled so well😔 It makes me fear having to be in my own once confinement ends.
