I have been a silent reader all this while.  I have got lots of tip on breastfeeding here e.g. how to increase milk production and stories of how determine some mummies to breastfeed their babies which makes me wanted to continue bf/ebm my baby.  By this month end, it will be 6 months since I started bf my baby  .  Initially my plan was to stop after 6 months but after reading all the stories make me want to continue.  My next target will be 1 year.  Hopefully I can make it.  Please include me into the breastfeeding list...since Apr 1, 2011.

Here I have a question to ask on behalf of my friend who is currently breastfeeding exclusively since she gave birth about 2.5 months ago.  She is now very stress as her baby girl only accept direct latch and does not take any bottle feed.  She has tried Breastflow, NUK, Avents nipples.  All the latex or silicon nipples just don’t work.  Night time she still needs to wake and feed her baby every 1-2 hours.  She will be back to work on Sep 26...still got another 2 weeks time.  Worst come to worst she may need to travel back home just to feed her baby during working hours.  Final solution is that she may need to quit her job.

Some advices I got from other forum is to bottle feed the baby (calmer) when the baby is not so hungry.  My friend has tried but not working.  The moment she put in anything other than her nipple she will starts crying. 

Anyone please help!!!!      

But in the beginning did u go home and feed ur bb or just let him starve and cry till u return from work feed him?

Added on September 16, 2011, 2:22 pmThe journey of my friend from pregnancy till bfing was not easy.  She had morning sickness through out her pregnancy, hemmorroid and now bb feeding problem.

I feel myself very lucky. My problem is only getting pregnant cos i hv infertility problem. Through out my pregnant i can eat whatever i want, just a bit uncomfortable when sleeping cos too heavy and constipation has even improved. Feeding bb i hv no problem. .when bfing suddenly if no more milk then my bb will cry complaining i can still ask my hubby to make formula for her then she will continue drinking from bottle.  And i don face any problem of MIL or hubby asking me to stop bfing.  My hb is very supportive cos he dun trust formula milk.  Now make me wanted to extend my bf period to a year. 

Today i m going to try bailey water, fenugreek and tomorrow papaya fish soup.  Hope it helps!
