breast feeding
i was once asked if i liked breast feeding and i said i hated it. i miss spoke then and wish i would have immediately taken the statement back. i hate pumping, being tethered to that stupid machine drives me bonkers. actually breast feeding miss Adler has had its ups and downs but mostly it is awesome to have time just me and her and snuggle. this is something i never did get to experience with Rigby. she never did latch on so she was a bottle baby. I really want to keep up breast feeding for the calorie burn alone, but i think we are nearing the end. Maybe because she is super sick, but Adler has slept all night for 3 nights in a row. good = sleeping all night, bad= only time i actually get to nurse her. so i am afraid my supply is dwindling down to nothing, and because my daytime pumping efforts are producing very little output. i really had the goal to make it a year, we aren't far off but i wanted to nurse till she was ready to give up that bottle. oh well for now we will just play it by ear and see what happens.
