my lo is almost 2 weeks old. I have been trying to bf him but with 3 other children i have resorted to 'topping' him up with formula after every bf - he does latch on well but he falls asleep despite all the tickles etc - he can be latched on and be semi feeding (sucking on and off) for almost an hour and still down 2/3 oz of formula - i know there is loads of milk as it is running down his chin when i go to burp him - where do i go from here??? I would love to exclusivley bf him but i do need a break of at least 2/3 hrs between feeds for the other children - if he could he would pitch up permantent residence at my boobs and never move-just doze and eat all day and night (lovely life if you could get it)
any advise would be appreciated
thanks
