When we decided to do 12 hours by 12 weeks we went sticky to bottles (i was pumping) for a week or so to make sure Emery was getting enough milk. We discovered she was getting plenty of milk so we could start cutting out night time feedings. Well this caused all kinds of breastfeeding issues. She was getting so pissed that the boob wasn't coming as fast and as easy as the bottle. We went back to boob as much as possible, so now the only bottle she gets is with Nana in the afternoons.
So with that back around info...Emery and I went to the La Leche League meeting this morning. Monica calls it the boob club and is the one that told us about the meeting. These girls are amazing. They have a lot of experience and had me feed Emery there so they could help. What happens is she eats and pulls her head back and screams. They gave me some tips and helped me with positions and some possible reasons why she's doing this. I left very relieved it turns out i might be over producing and she's trying to keep up. i thought it might be the opposite.
other than that things are going great. KMK is doing well and i'm working from the house in the afternoons. Emery spends the afternoons with Nana. Dave has a herniated disc in his neck and is having a lot of pain. We spent all of Tuesday at the Spine Center and they gave him a shot for the pain and a neck collar to wear when he sleeps. The doctor thinks it will heal itself and we won't need surgery. I'm trying to keep him from doing to much.
oh I have a ton of videos of Emery on YouTube now! http://www.youtube.com/user/melyjask
