No more issues with pumping! I seem to be a pro now. One major difference is that I pump both sides now instead of just one. This helped to increase my supply. The other one is that I gave up on putting Sutton into the co-sleeper. Turns out that sleeping with him by my side actually increases my milk supply. A good friend helped me talk through my sleeping arrangement and helped me to realize - why change a good thing? Sutton is almost 4 months old which is one of the worst times to start a new sleeping regimen. It's the time of a marked sleep regression and the new super fun thing Sutton is doing called TEETHING. I feel as though it's necessary to write that in all caps because are you a Mom? Have you experienced TEETHING? No? I automatically hate you.
Jesus loves me, this I know. Not because of the bible, because of Hylands. According to an email from my husband (who is currently a stay at home Dad/business owner of a landscaping company that plows in the winter... you know... when there's actually snow) Sutton woke up screaming from his nap, Mike gave him 2 tablets and he passed right out. It's like chloroform for TEETHING, except it's all natural and I won't go to jail for using it on my kid. Win-win!!!
Also, I'm considering collecting all of Sutton's drool and sending it to Haiti. I'm pretty sure he could hydrate at least 1/2 of the population. Ponder that my friends.
