Day 42 (oct 26 2010)
last week alone we have 5 whole days without formula WOOOHOO im so proud of myself. also i have only been giving Samantha fresh pumped milk instead of pumping and freezing so im pretty happy that i got a good amount in the freezer in case i have a low pump day. this week i dont feel as full all though i know it might because my period is coming. i know my period had no effect on my breastmilk output last month but this month i think it is. also i guess my supply is almost regulating to what Samantha needs. she seems to be eating about 21oz aday (hope this is a healthy amount, her weight was alright at her appointment yesterday).
My husband and i both came to the conclusion that it would be SOOOO much easier if Sam latched so we are going to work on this more and more. and hopefully she will just get it one day. but either way im just glad shes getting as much breastmilk as she is getting.
we have also noticed that 1 formula bottle a day seems to help Samantha sleep, it could be flook but i noticed it the last couple nights she has gotten one before bed. so guess we will keep giving her one.
