Yup. Eat oatmeal every morning with my 1st glass of tea.

I hate oatmeal lol.... Ugh like instant oatmeal or what? I'm willing to try anything

Okay ladies so i tried to pump after my feeding and only got 1.5 oz. And nothing in between. Ugh I'm feeling like a failure. I'm gonna buy some fenugreek and tea tomorrow....

It takes more then one pump to up your supply. Pump AFTER every feeding for 15 mins on each breast even if your not getting anything [the pulling and tricking your body that the baby is still eating will raise your supply]. Within 3-4 days your supply should be starting to go up. Its so much better to just do it natural before using products to do it. Then you are less likely to feel engorged and your just telling your body thats when you need more milk. Also the times that you can, Do skin on skin while your feeding. That will help your supply go up too. Also it can be 100% normal to produce more out of one boob then the other. And it could just be how your body works.

My little sweetheart <3

I was finally able to take a pic fast enough to catch it !

Levi is going to be six weeks old in a couple of days (: Feels like yesterday. He has outgrown all of his newborn clothes   He is trying to crawl but not quite there yet. He gets so loud during tummy time haha. I think he might be allergic to the cat..   I really love kitty but I don't want him to be neglected because Levi is allergic and I'm always with Levi. So I may have to find a new home for him..

It could also be the laundry detergent or my perfume or other factors so we are waiting till his pedi appt to find out. In 22 days he will 2 months old! Wow.

Brandon and I are getting married in 14 days. Almost everything is set for that. We are going to the casino next weekend for a little alone time before the wedding. (: School is going great, and I have decided to be a stay at home mom for a couple more years until I get my bachelors degree! Yay.

Anyways, hope all is well with you ladies & your babies.

Hey Ladies,
Gina went to her 4 week appt she gained almost two pounds and and an inch since birth. Also she may have a dairy allergy I have to cut dairy completely from my diet until I'm done breastfeeding :'(. I hope everything is going well for you ladies.

thank y I'll try to keep up with this. Strangely this morning I pumped when he was sleeping and I got 4 oz from each boob. I was so stoked. I've chalked it up to the "use or lose" situation. I've started trying to get him on a feeding schedule so I can actually have time to pump. The daycare won't feed him every hour like he's used to.... They only do every 2 hrs. I'm thinking stress may be a factor as well because so much is going on. Butt thank you x



Ot but how do you like your new place?!

Kind of bad quality but here is Thorian trying to laugh
