too attached?

Breastfeeding has gotten so much better the past few days! But it seems Delilah always wants to be on me. Half the time to actually eat and the other half to fall asleep. Her nasal passages swell so bad she can't breathe and the only thing that calms her down and helps her steady her breathing is putting her on there. The minute she falls asleep and I take her off she screams....weve tried pacifiers...no luck. Any advice?

I wish I had advice for you but considering this is my first and I've never hardly been around babies... I have no idea

My son is a mamas boy too. He's currently sleeping on my chest right now. He was bf for only a few days til I decided to pump. Hes not as bad now like before when he was exclusively on the boob. And maybe try another kind of paci.

Nasal passages swell? I'm not to clear on That. Like she gets stuff (mucous) in the nose or are her passages swelling to the point that they almost shut?

@adensmommy0803 @simplyraven22406 hers swell almost shut! Sticking an aspirator in it makes it worse. They told us not to use it and if we have to to be gentle and barley put it in there.

@HomeBirthAdvocate thank you! Im sure I will be posting a thousand more questions soon enough
