But...I understand. My 10 week old son was born 3 weeks early and had to go immediately to the NICU, where he stayed 20 days, with pulmonary hypertension. It was bad. I pumped from the second they brought one in my room. At first, I was making SO much milk, I brought home about a gallon frozen from the hospital. Kept producing 2oz each side regularly. That was great...until he started eating 4oz, then wanting more. I went through the gallon of frozen in no time. I was barely keeping up. Sometimes I wasn't. I cried the first time I mixed up his formula and the look on his face when he drank it...then the upset stomach came. He even drank fussiness and gas formula, but was STILL sick. First puke. I cried. My husband had me boohooing, Pierce screaming and puking...I felt horrible. I'm still having supply issues, and he still gets formula every few days when I just can't keep up. We do the best we can as moms, as long as she's eating, growing, and loved you can't fail. Amandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03030378027505873821noreply@blogger.com
