Good Bye Pump!!!
You know you live a boring life when the only thing you have to blog about is your breast pump. Well most of you don't know about the horrible experience I had with nursing when Elai was born. He would not breast feed at all. The doctor told me that it was because he was early and sucking was just too hard for him. It broke my heart, I thought it was all my fault and that I was doing something wrong. But I was determined to have him drink breast milk so the hospital got us a pump. For the last six and a half weeks I have been pumping 8-12 times a day. But then our luck changed. On Saturday I decided I would try to nurse Elai and to my surprise he did it! I didn't think he would ever nurse because he had been taking a bottle for so long but he did and I am super excited! Oh and on another note, I have seemed to misplace my camera somewhere right after taking tons of new pictures of our little guy.

Yay! I completely understand those feelings of not being able to breastfeed. (And how annoyingg it is to pump all day) You will find it is nicer to just be able to feed him when he's hungry. I'm glad you tried and it worked out for you!
