Facing issue with breastfeeding
My newborn used to be able to latch for 1wk+, however he is suddenly rejecting since 2 days ago. He opened and covered his mouth with it but took out right after for both sides... Anyone faced similar issue and managed to resolve it?
My LO is not a newborn anymore, but he sometimes has this problem too. I suspect it's nipple confusion. I do bottle feeding and breast feeding, and it could be that he sometimes is confused over whether it is a nipple and unlatches. For me, if I changed sides baby would sometimes be willing to latch on. Sometimes i chang to football hold and he is willing to latch again. But sometimes everything also fail. Have not found a solution yet.

Check the flow, sometimes if I have heavy let down my baby reject too. If he is showing other symptoms like arching back or gas, I try to bump him first then resume.
