had very good luck with nursing for some reason.
maybe she is magic! (im excited to get to be magic too when im one :) )
baby girl got 70 ml! nearly 2.5 oz! in one sitting, that was perfect and right on track.
we discussed me coming back on friday. since i had little pain today we decided to forgo the tube finger feeding until friday at our next appt and alternate one pumping session with the small syringe feeding Little, and then one on the breast.
im hopeful! she seemed to be getting a little better at the latch.
i love seeing her little face close to me. i worried about not getting the bonding and security of mommy.
also we decided to try soothies yesterday because then i could see what she is doing with her tongue when she sucks. still not strong enough with her tongue and the thing falls out and she gets so frustrated! i feel horrible. she just wants to suckle for comfort and with the pain of her poor latch and tongue, i cant have her suckling at my breast like that for comfort! i just want to give her comfort! such a strange and scary place the world must be the first few weeks until she realizes its the new normal for her.
ill update how well our plan works out soon. :)
