Hello Experts,
I am an RN and an LC new to private practice.  I will be seeing a women
whose baby is 7 days old.  Born via c-section.  Baby has only latched
according to mom one time for one minute.  Baby is recieving bottles of
infant formula.  Mom experienced engorgement on day 3 post-partum, and
now states breasts feel pre-pregnant.  She has only pumped occasionally
with a hand pump.  What would be the best route to take?  An SNS?
Offering the breast at each feed and then using an alternate feeding
method, while mom pumps to build supply? A combination of these? Any
suggestions would be appreciated. Thank-you.
