Did she go to the boob okay after?

Yeah she did great going between bottle and boob. She had an upper lip tie that made nursing hurt like a BIT** since it made her have a crappy latch. She was only EBF for the 1st 6 weeks, then i had to start supplementing since i just couldn't keep up with her only having one breast. I just hated how many parts the Dr. Browns had

One of mine works and the other doesn't work well because babies can't drain it because of the super inverted nip so I slowly lose supply. Luckily, the other one overproduced like crazy!

I'll try to find some small doc browns and see how they do! Where'd you buy them? I haven't seen them in stores and they're not on target where my registry is either.

no prob. They also sold just the nipples, so if she starts eating more than 2oz, you can get the bigger bottles, but still use the preemie nipples.
