Quoting Mama❍Moon:" I'm doing good   I'm nursing a little one atm too. He's 5 months and a little porker! How is your new LO nursing ? "

Congrats on the beeb!

Mine has to be going through a growth spurt b/c he's been cluster feeding like crazy lately. I can't ever seem to get him off the boob.

I really, really hate growth spurts!!

No I don't nurse from both sides, when she was an ewbrsheefused my left side, no matter what I did or tried she would not nurse from
he right (my nipple is shaped a little bit different) so that side dried up when she was about 2 months old.

I only have a hand pump, which is kinda sucks too. Oh and I don't feel my let down at all.

I get a bit paranoid giving it out because of all the stuff that has gone down on here.
In fact...I'm probably gonna go delete now.

Yup! My DH was great. I'd plop down on the couch and he'd bring me whatever I needed.
