Default Re: April G/L chatty preggo/parents thread

Cheryl - WOW... triplets. We have a local friend here that is 4 months along with triplets. Good luck to ya, girl.

Robin - I am glad you found a good RE. We had trouble finding one to. I felt the cramping and pulling that you are experiencing until like month 6... so try not to worry.

A - I can't wait to see some of this pics if you post them.

Care - If only I had your "problem" with milk. I am barely able to pump 13 ounces in ONE DAY! That was on a day that we fed formula all day to try to get ahead of Olivia. Glad things seem to be getting easier with Harper's sleeping.

Joanna - Hope your trip went ok. You will have to tell me all about it. We will be making a similar trip here in a few weeks. Wow... that is weird about the polyps, glad they found the issue though. What are they going to do about it? I assume remove them?

Jen - Good luck on your "date"... my mom kept Olivia one evening last week and we went to a neighberhood restaurant. My mom insisted that we be gone for at least an hour and a half... so we went to get ice cream at Baskin Robin's (I am a big goob... I LOVE to go do that) afterward because we both ate so fast. heheh We did manage, however, to have at least a little bit of conversation about something besides Olivia.

So... the latest breastfeeding issue is my supply <sigh>... everything else is so much better. I am going to see the LC for the second time here tomorrow or early next week to see if she can help us get Olivia eating more efficiently (she nurses for more than an hour at each feeding and we don't think she is getting all that much because she usually requires expressed milk or formula (if I am out of breast milk) after each feeding. That is why I haven't been on here much. I am having a hard time juggling a baby that loves to cuddle, breastfeeding for extended periods of time, eating weirdo food and taking herbs to help with the supply and also pumping.

On the bright side we had her one month pictures done on Saturday and they turned out good. Some of them are with all 3 of us and I even am ok with the way I look in the pictures. (miracle) She is holding her head up pretty good and rolling over from side to side. (Not all the way over to the tummy from her back.)

Well, we are going to meet Kathy for lunch today... so I am going to go pump and hop in the shower while Olivia takes one of her infrequent naps.

Dawn
