Newborn always crying and wants to latch

It might be because he’s not getting enough milk from your breast. You can consider pumping after latching to increase your supply. Anything after 15-20 mins on the boobs is considered as comfort latching and he’s not feeding already. In short, human pacifier. If you’re latching for 45mins long each time and he keeps showing latching cues, you basically don’t need to do anything else apart from latching 24/7. Will you be going back to work after ML or will you be a SAHM till he’s ready to wean? If you’re intending to go back to work, I’d suggest introducing bottle while latching. Start with the slowest flow teat. Even after you start work, the caregiver can still bottle feed them while you latch baby before and after work/before sleep. I personally stopped latching (my monster grew teeth and used me as teether) and give full EBM for my sanity. That way I don’t have to keep waking up to latch and my husband can also help with night feedings. Also, I can track my baby’s intake and they can sleep longer. I would rather have a full baby. 😊 Happy baby, happy mummy.
