I've got a horrible backache from nursing. What can I do?
I use a boppy pillow, and I put 3 pillows straight up against the headrest of my bed, so that I'm propped straight up.
However, even with the boppy pillow, my baby is too low for the breast, so I end up either leaning over, or not using the boppy and holding the baby in the crook of my arm (I can only do the cradle hold, I can't figure out how to nurse using the clutch/football hold)
My back is so sore, because obviously, I'm not situated right.
Would it be helpful if I sat in a kitchen chair?
I have a vanity chair as a desk chair that would keep my sitting up straight to nurse, but it'd be kind of a pain to get up and walk across the room in the middle of the night to nurse.
Please help!
My back is KILLING me
You and me both honey, it's sooo hard on your back. I never used a boppy for that reason. I found a very fluffy high cheap pillow or I would stack 2 or 3 around me one under my elbow for support and one behind my back and neck and sometimes 2 under her to make her high enough.
Your back will get used to it though somewhat over time you'll get more stregth in you arm.
I could never nurse in any other position either she just wouldn't latch right in any other hold. She's 11 mths and I still do cradle.
