My son is a week &1/2 old and he has trouble latching onto my breast. Sometimes I spend up to 20 mins trying to latch him on properly. We use the "football hold", I have tried the lap hold, that only works once in a while. Once he latches on he feeds just fine, but then he falls asleep, and I don't want to wake him to swich breasts because I spent so much time trying to get him on the first one. I do end up waking him and swiching him, but I feel like I am doing something wrong that he won't latch on nicely, it fustrates both of us and I don't want feeding time to be stressful. Will it ever get better/easier?
