Lola & The Breast....

Are no longer close friends. LOL! She has been refusing to latch on and in an attempt to get us back on track I actually put Hershey's syrup on my nipples to see if that would help......it did! LOL! She latched on and numnumnumnumnumed for the longest time. It's only in the late afternoon that we've been having problems. She no longer breastfeeds in the morning, she has solids. So technically she only breastfeeds at noon, 5, 9 and at night. Not too bad. :) Still hanging in there!! I htink I may just say good bye to breastfeeding soon, it's becoming more and more work for me AND her both. We'll see. :)

Self Weaning.....

I don't know if it's self weaning or if it's teething, but I cannot seem to get her to nurse as often. -_- I don't know. I keep her on the boob as much as I can, mostly all day, but still she refuses. Fusses, bites, hits and tears away. I know the supply is there, but she is just not feelin' it. Hmmm......it says it's rare for a child under a year old to self wean, but I think she is. It says that it may be the Mother's wishes to stop breastfeeding that cause it, but that's no the case here AT ALL!! So, what do I do?! I'm going to try to pump as much as possible and keep her attached to me as much as possible and hope for the best. :(

Lola Is The Best!

She now likes to be put in her crib and she likes to fall asleep on her own. :D It doesn't get any better than that!!!!

Thrush

Lola has it and my left boob has it. Ahhh.....the joys of Motherhood. LOL!! The Nystatin makes her ill and makes me boobs itch like crazy. It's almost gone though!!!! YAY!!!!! I'm pretty sure it's from my Mother not cleaning the bottles good enough while we were gone. -_- She's losing her mind that woman! Just goes to show that only MOMMY knows how to do anything right. HAHAHAHAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
