I make lots of milk and now Kieran is finally drinking lots of that (I can pump 2oz in 5minutes from the side she doesnt' nurse on, 4 within 10, same thing with Seamus too)

Her last weight was 5lbs 14oz the pedi wants her at her birth weight at her check this coming Monday.

Today we were at Early Headstart and they have a scale there (the ones like at the dr that you slide the things down).

I got on it by myself and was at 218 even (way better then the 230 Pre-pregnancy and the 234.5 when I had Kieran) and when I got Kieran it went upto 224.5! So she's very close to her birth weight, it'd be awesome to go in Monday and be at 7lbs

Thats the thing milks been in since day 3 (was told it would come in sooner since I BF Seamus so I knew that would happen) she just wasnt' latching all the way she had an issue with her tongue, as did Seamus but hers was alittle worse, but now she is finally latching and drinking I can feel her swallowing it more often then before, and shes eating more often then before. She still doesn't want to wake up at night but I make her which is hard to get her to nurse for long cause she wants to go back to sleep but I do it any way
