Preparing to successfully breastfeed after failed attempts, what to do?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Relax: First, relax before you breastfeed. Next, consult a lactation consultant for evaluation and advice. Assuming there is no anatomical or medical contraindication to breastfeeding, remind yourself that you can and will. Then, while nursing have a quiet place where you are comfortable, where someone can bring you a snack and something to drink, where you can spend uninterrupted time with your baby.
