    • Why wont you try and see how it goes. Its so much easier the second time.

      • np: I agree. I know several women who really struggled the first time, and found it much easier the second time. See how you feel then, and if it's still a struggle, know that you tried and switch to bottles.

        • Its amazing how much easier/better it was for the second time too. I don't know why but it just clicked this time.

    • Do what makes you comfortable and happy - the baby will be able to tell if you're reluctant about nursing. Had a great lactation consultant tell me what you do with your baby is much more important than what she eats.
