Go You!

I am so proud of you.
You are trying.
You are doing the right thing.
I am not one of those crazy breastfeeding mommas that have done it just everywhere and never let my child have a bottle. No way.
I had big boys 9 lbs each big eaters (at least when they were babies)
Derek was more attached to the breast and had a hard time taking a bottle than Joseph. Joseph just wanted/wants to eat he doesn't care what, how or when.

It's hard. It's you and only you. Your body is recovering from giving birth and your tired and worn out and you've been fat and pregnant for 9 months and now THIS. Just let daddy or grandma feed the kid. But they need you. There is a reason your body produces milk you know. Canned formula was INVENTED not created.
I am so proud of you. Keep it up. Call me I'll help.
BIG HUGS and LOTS OF LOVE to
Shauna and Jake
and
Jenn and Jacob.

You are wonderful. Thanks for your encouragement. He will not take one but he'll take the other so we are modifying and it's working out great. It's incredible. Had a big mishap yesterday and ended up at the ER but Ivan took me and Jacob and he truly was a little angel. More on this later.

Just know, I love you. You are kind of like a beacon you know? Look at you! Your blog IS wonderful. Mine is more, well, you know, big picture and my not so agreed on thoughts of my life and the world. Not much to comment on there..you know? You will be a writer. One day, you'll just make it happen. Kay now that I"m falling asleep typing, guess I'll sign off. Good thing you are not here in my presence because if we were talking face to face, you'd be offended, I'd fall asleep right in the middle of the conversation! :) No joke.

Hugs to you.
Jenn
