Congrats! That's great! And I second the "I didn't even get 2oz and I wasn't trying to relactate." When I first tried pumping I could never get it right. :-(

Granted it took me all day!! But i was happy. Still am.

Anthony nurses when he wants. He has an ear infection so super fussy. Not helping with latching. But i try.

that is so amazing :D And I bet you when he nurses he gets more, you generally can't pump as much as a baby can get out. That's so so so great, and you're awesome for trying so hard!

thanks girls. Really your words help.

Atfirst i was like ahh no big deal but im just so proud of myself for not giving up because i almost did.

If i gave up it just would have been worse in the back of my head saying why didnt i. Now i can say i did it!

When he nurses i love it! :) i just stare and smile :) :)

i think him nursing at night to bed is starting to be a routine. Which is AWESOME! He nursed again last night! 15 minutes!
