It was a rough night and both of us are so exhausted. I was actually dreading this day. I was so scared that the lactation nurse will tell me that I am doing everything wrong and I have to keep BF every 30 minutes. However, at the same time, I wanted to know what she can do to help us.
She was very nice and had a nice smile when we met her at the pediatrician office. She saw how I was BF and how Haley was responding. After she witnessed how our BF was going, she asked me "What would you like to accomplish with BF?" I told her "I would like to continue giving her my milk, but I am just so worried that I am not producing enough milk and also my baby is loosing too much weight already. I would like to use formula, but would like to give her my milk as much as I can pump. She agreed. A huge weight was lifted from my shoulder at this moment. I was so glad that I could take a plan B and feed her as she deserves to get to the normal weight.
I was finally in good mood. I was determined to pump as often as I can to give my little baby as much as breast milk.
