Update On Us!

So, I got those bottles that Natalie
suggested...
And they're GREAT!!!!!!! They've helped
bring her suck back and she's spending
MORE time on the breast, and LESS time on
the bottle!! Her latch has also improved
10 fold!!! 
She's such a trooper!!!
The lactation consultant called me Friday
to see how things were going and to see
how her Dr's appt went. I told her about
everything and she congratulated me on
STILL breastfeeding. Even after all that
we've been through! She basically assured
me that SOME breast milk is better than
NONE, and that with time/practice, she
WILL get better!!
Oni is doing SOOOO great with Nya! She's
SOOO gentle and loves Nya so much!!(can I
say 'SOOO' anymore?! LOL!)
Seriously, I'm really proud of Oni. She's
very independent and wants to be so
involved with EVERYTHING concerning Nya!
I love my baby girls so much it literally
brings tears to my eyes.
I'm doing GREAT. I know it's still early,
but I'm feeling SO positive about
everything. We'll see how that goes when
Baron goes back to work. LOL!
Thanks everyone for all the advice/tips on
the breastfeeding! It really means a lot
to me to hear such positive words!!
Sarah

I'm glad the bottles worked for you!
They're a little more expensive than
normal bottles and some patients have said
they're a little complicated, but you've
got it down!
Glad I could help! (Btw my mom says she's
glad it worked for you too!)

Thanks Natalie!! & tell your mom I
said Thanks too!!
Baron didn't like them at first because
she has to "work for the milk". But once I
expressed my LOVE for them and how much
they've helped HER...he's grown to like
em! He didn't understand how much they
really are JUST like the breast!!
She's such a good baby so far!! If she's
ANYTHING like Oni, she's gonna be an
angel!!!

Did you point out that she has to "work
for the milk" on the breast, too?
Men are so oblivious sometimes!

Haha! I'd just have been like, "tell that
to my nipples!"
Seriously, I'm so glad everything worked
out for you. And just to prove to you that
you've got it GOOD with Nya, when my mom
breastfed me (which she did for like...18
months, I think?) my nickname at first was
"Baby Barracuda"!

Thanks Amy!!!
Yea, I've heard that when teeth come into
the picture, the story changes! LOL!
I'm really glad her latch has gotten
better. My nipples were TORE up when she
started. I'm talking I had a full blown
scab on my nipp nipp!! OUCHHH!!
Now, I don't feel a THING when she's
sucking and she's getting SOOO much
more!!
The right latch makes SOOOOOOOOOOOO
SOOOOOOO SOOOOOOOO much of a
difference!!!

Sometimes it just happens...I have no idea
why. And sometimes it still works as a
link, even with all the extra text!
