I'm new to breastfeeding and people talk about the "let-down". What does it feel like? I'm not sure if I'm experiencing it.
Every baby is different, so what works for one might not work for another. Don't get discouraged!
Even a few minutes at a time adds up! We used a special tummy time mat with lots of textures and a mirror. That helped distract him.
Yep, that sounds exactly right! Mustard yellow and seedy is the classic breastfed baby poop. It's a good sign they are getting enough of the fatty hindmilk.
I don't have advice but sending you support! You're doing great.

My pediatrician said to let them sleep! As long as they are gaining weight properly and have enough wet/dirty diapers, you don't need to wake a sleeping baby. Enjoy the rest!
Try doing it on your chest while you're lying down! My baby tolerated that way better than on the floor. Or roll up a towel and put it under their armpits for support.
