Hi ladies.

I have a 4 month old DS and a 3 year old DD. DD was born with health issues that made it near impossible to breastfeed. I pumped for 10 weeks, but her health issues really effected my mental state and I produced next to nothing.

DS was born in August. He came 5 weeks early due to a uterine rupture. He spent 11 days in NICU, but we started on bfeeding right away. Thanks to AMAZEBALLS lactation consultants, we both did great. He has now been EBF for 4 months. It has not been easy, I had mastitis twice and thrush for a freaking month, but we are stiull chugging along.

I work full time, so I am unsure how long things will progress. But, my first goal was 6 month and I am 2/3 of the way there. I would love to get to a year, but I am not going to beat myself up if that does not happen. Anyway, hai!
