We are soo in love! I'll write up a full birth story later, but wanted to show a few pics. While the labor wasn't that long (I went to the hospital at 10am and delivered at 6:31pm), it surely wasn't easy! I had a third degree tear this is no fun. Breastfeeding has been tough too, I saw a lactation consultant this morning and that feeding was perfect, but the ones after that have been hard too. I'm not going to give up, but giving her a bottle of formula has crossed my mind for sure!

Here are some pics! Thank you for all the well wishes!

Congrats to all of you. She is so cute.
If you do decide to stick with BF, it does get easier but it really is a commitment.

Christine! Congratulations! I LOVE that name! I am glad your labor was short... and sorry that it ended up with such a huge tear. I can't even imagine. BTW... BF is really hard at first. I think the first two weeks are the hardest. Then it gets easier. Don't hesitate to call Le Leche or another lactation consultant.

She's so cute!! I'm sorry you're having a hard time with BFing, but it does get easier! The girls on the BFing board here are great. I told myself I wasn't allowed to quit or give formula in the first 6 weeks and I'm not sure I would have stuck with it if I hadn't done that, but I'm so glad I did!
