feel better today...

I am on the 2 -2 1/2 hour feeding schedule now and even though I feel I am slaving at the boob, it has gone well. My Mom suggested maybe I give her one bottle of formula a day to make myself feel better that she is getting something, but after talking with DH he said why do I not pump once a day to give her a bottle, that since I am going back to work in a few weeks it might be a good idea to get her accustomed to the bottle anyways and I would know she is getting something. While both these ideas are great (did not realize my Dh was so up on info or caring about HOW I feed my DD) I am not sure if "I" am ready for the bottle or ready to pump, I hated pumping with Avery and I know I will have to pump eventually but for now I do not want to. Camryn slept her normal last night, I tried waking her up after 3 hours before having the long stretch of sleep but she was so difficult to wake up, so I let her be and we have our long stretch of sleep first then the short amount later.

I feel better about it today and THANK YOU everyone for making me feel better.

I should be straightening my house tonight for the cleaning lady to come tomorrow, it looks like a tornado hit my living room (thanks Avery) and kitchen but I am so tired today, guess I should stop reading blogs and start cleaning...

Jenni - you are an amazing mommy! You are doing EVERYTHING for little C, and I am super impressed with you for it!

(I missed Monday's post until now - not sure how I missed it, but we had issues with J&S not gaining properly - and I was already giving them formula, so please do not take advice on "how to" from me.)

Keep up the great job!!!
