Kyle has already asked when we can go back to "Ms. Emma's" house. We really shouldn't limit ourselves to New Year's Eve. Please keep me updated and let me know what I can do to help. Don't be shy about asking, I really mean it.Wrylehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08162036739671223451noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5111059023401318844.post-63343439725099352702009-01-03T22:15:00.000-06:002009-01-03T22:15:00.000-06:00Antigonos, I'm supplementing with formula now. I ...Antigonos, I'm supplementing with formula now. I want to get our normal nursing relationship back if we can -- until recently, he was gaining very well and nursing trouble-free. I enjoy nursing him, and formula is inconvenient, expensive, and smells bad. Supplementation is the worst of all worlds, but I'll do it for a short while if I think it may work itself out in a few weeks. I think the decision will most likely be made for me, one way or the other. <BR/><BR/>As for the hysterectomy, I'm increasingly afraid it's the inevitable consequence. I've worried about that almost since this began, and I'm not exactly reassured by present events.EABhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14086387967692442908noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5111059023401318844.post-41635408806959489882009-01-03T03:33:00.000-06:002009-01-03T03:33:00.000-06:00Emma, go to formula. You and I both know it's not ...Emma, go to formula. You and I both know it's not the end of the world.<BR/>I KILLED myself breastfeeding Son for 6 weeks, and he did gain weight -- barely. Then I was in a place where I couldn't breastfeed, and watched a 3 week old infant suck up 250cc of Similac, and become a human being. I persevered with total breast feeding for another 3 weeks before I saw the light. Despite everything I was taught, by three months he had begun getting cereal -- he was an immensely hungry kid. It looks to me that Andrew is the same.<BR/>Offer the breast first, then give a bottle.<BR/><BR/>On the other matter, I'm beginning to think that you might be better off with a hysterectomy [!?] I hope you are feeling better by this time...Antigonoshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01022875780607194845noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5111059023401318844.post-87987809366299674352009-01-02T12:34:00.000-06:002009-01-02T12:34:00.000-06:00Jeez Louise!

And I really hope that everything is okay with Andrew - it seems very strange to me that he'd be nursing and seem like he's happy and content while not actually getting enough! Please let us know how things go with his doc!Nicohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16391676406311335476noreply@blogger.com
