I really feel for you with those breast feeding problems, but really pleased to hear that they seem to be easing up and he's gaining weight so well. It's so cruel that all those breast feeding hassles come when you are trying to recover from one of the most dramatic things your body will ever have to do! The hand-knits you've dressed him in are so lovely, such a special thing for a new baba. Congrats again all round to you and your family xxxZoehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10893813529679767893noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-863792023187803515.post-56985524148168382172015-02-23T14:55:14.578-05:002015-02-23T14:55:14.578-05:00Congratulations, welcome home, and good luck!

The worst part was that even though I had nursed a baby into toddlerhood before, even though half my friends are IBCLCs and I've been engaging in mother to mother breastfeeding support for years, everyone was so dismissive of my complaints. It was so frustrating! "Well, you do know that some discomfort is normal in the early days, right?" and when Maggie didn't gain weight, "Have you considered eating oatmeal or taking fenugreek?" I was like, I had oversupply with my first baby, I could shoot you in the eye with milk from across the room right now, the problem is not my supply. It took a couple weeks to figure out that tongue tie was the problem (about ten different doctors and nurses said there was no tongue tie and the latch "looked fine") and get it resolved but it made a big difference. Hope you can nurse more comfortably and get some needed rest now! He's a bonnie little lad.Inder-ifichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09724667602427496583noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-863792023187803515.post-25572914747501851292015-02-20T13:30:11.357-05:002015-02-20T13:30:11.357-05:00Congratulations Mikhaela on your handsome guy!
