I just saw a mom who had mag. sulf. during preg. and postpartum for high blood pressure. She had IV during her 22hr. labor and baby was vaccum delivery also has a broken collar bone. Mom is F cup size with flat nipples that retract when compressed. Grandmother bottle fed infant EBM and some formula last night since discharge weight was 10oz. below birthweight and they could not get baby to latch. When I got there today, we pumped but areola still firm (lots of water retention from IV) Baby got highly agitated at breast would latch but then would not continue to suck (just kind of waited then came off) Even tried starter SNS at breast hoping flow would keep baby sucking but he was too frustrated. (Nipple sheild given at hospital didn't seem to help either) So mom agreed to fingerfeed EBM for now and to continue to try latch-on to breast. Talked about feeding cues to catch baby before too hungry. Baby hopefully will be more cooperative as collar bone heals. Questions: how long for bone to heal ? How long til Mom looses extra water retention? Any tips for extremely large breasted women? Places or cataloques to purchase large bra sizes? tia Robin B. Frees, BA IBCLC Malvern PA
