Whatever Wednesday

Number 2 is a whole different ball game, because number 1 doesn't go away. ;-)

And next time someone like that LC is being an asshole, you say 'I am not one of your buddies asking for a favour. I am a client/patient/customer paying for your service. I expect to be treated as such'

You guys are so awesome I am literally in tears. I am going to look for the LC's number from the hospital. I have more to post but hope to get on here tomorrow! Where do the days go? Holy cow. I don't even know where I found the time to work last time in the first week I had W. No wonder I had a mental breakdown! I haven't even watched tv since I've been home this time. Crazy!

I've always felt the "where do the days go" feeling. And just so you feel better. Sam is 4 weeks this weekend and I am going to start pumping next week. We haven't quite had a3wk growth spurt, so I'm erring on the side of caution. Like Linzeek said, I don't want to pump to send a message that we need so much more milk. And I'm feeling like my body is starting to regulate my supply. 

Also, I feel you 1000% on the Being lost without S12 support this time around.....and this is my 3rd! You'd think I have a clue. I didn't Get into J15 too much, did not join their FB that you had to join before 2nd tri, and now they've left for that "other place". 

PS-in the coming weeks or maybe even now, you'll want to watch the Oprah Baby Language video on YouTube. Helps to decipher which sounds baby is making. I remember someone posting it on here and it helped a LOT last time. (Difference between "I'm tired" cry vs. "im hungry cry". DH always thinks the baby is hungry, which is not always the case.  He gets frustrated quickly & doesn't know what to do and it's easier to hand him off to me to nurse than it is to listen and figure out what is really the issue. I'm just getting into it this week but it's a lifesaver. 

Sorry that was a book!!!

@linzeek44‌, not that it pertains to me right now, but I am interested regardless.
I EPed. So I just put a drop of 1 drop d drops in a bottle and called it a day. My friend has done really well with nursing but her baby (now about 3m) has been doing the whole 'rub your face all over the boob before latching' fun stuff, and she was asking how the hell she was supposed to get the d drop in the kid - finger and just jam it in (softly?)?

I am assuming we'll be sunny enough in may once my next one gets here so we won't need the drops, but yeah, that question struck me as interesting.

Yep, @Nita2603‌
On a finger and stick it in or on a pacifier.
