I’ve got a whole line up of birth & postpartum chronicles ready to share but I’m just going to leave this here because this may seem like a small accomplishment but this is the first baby I haven’t supplemented with formula in the first 48 hours.

He’s small, he had a moment last night when I almost caved and I just kept putting him back on the breast, rotating sides til he settled. For someone who’s struggled with low supply, seeing him settle from my colostrum was a huge win!! So if you’ve ever felt like giving up, and didn’t, I solute you.

A fed baby is always a healthy baby and zero judgement to how you get your baby fed, I’m just trying different things with baby #3 and hoping it brings a better supply in this time! Who knows?! 

I may not have slept but you rewarded me with a 3 hour nap this morning lol so go us!

Solidarity! Cluster feeding is so rough!! Cyrus cluster fed his whole first night in the hospital when i was by myself cause Sean was home with Asher, i was so tired and ended up only getting 2 hrs before the nurses woke us both up 🥱
