breastfeeding

I think I can have ten kids if it wasn't for breastfeeding. I'm okay on one side but the other side is killing me. I can't seem to empty and feel ike there's something stuck. So frustrating.... I mean, why do I have to wear cabbage, ice pack and heating pack on me? I hate people who says breastfeeding is a joy and it's easy. You be me one day and see how you feel. I thought it would be easier the second time around but no!

Good news though. GHL was 8 pounds 12 ounces last Thurs. I guess I'll go to breastfeeding group again this Thurs and weigh her. Until then I'll be wearing cabbage, ice pack and heating pack and crying.

sorry it's been such a pain (literally.) I'll be praying for you. i'm glad the little one is gaining weight, though!

I'm sorry to hear it is so painful and hard. I hope it won't be like that when I have to go through it in a few months. Why cabbage?

so glad to hear the G is gaining weight. i know how my heart sank when N didn't gain enough. you're doing great persevering under such circumstances. call me when you need a lending ear. i soooo know what you're going through. and who says breastfeeding is a joy? i must go and bonk their heads. i'm praying for you, dear.

Yeah, I never quite got the joy thing either. Hang in there, J. Like you said, one day at a time...
