**JLKIllion**

I didn't want to reply in the other post because I wasn't sure you'd see it.

Yeah, I'm not surprised that she's not eating much solids if she's drinking that much milk--if it's your milk, great--but I would not replace it with cow's milk because it simply doesn't offer the same nutrition that mom's milk does. Like I said in my previous post, my son gets water with meals and very occasionally other things.

The longer I BF'd the more poorly I responded to the pump. One thing that I found was key was to do things exactly the same as if I was nursing him. When I nurse, I read on my iphone, so if I didn't do that when I pumped I absolutely could not get a let down. Other things that helped were deep, relaxing breaths, visualizing having him at the breast--the way he looked, felt, smelled, etc. 

Good luck!

  • Thank you! Today I gave her water with her breakfast / morning snack, and she sucked it down. I need to do more research on how to meet her nutritional needs with solids and nursing. As soon as I think I have my mind wrapped around something, she changes everything up!
