Breast Feeding

Breast feeding is way more difficult then I thought it would be. I wanted to do it for at least 3 months or until summer came. Unfortunately that won't be happening and I'm really upset by it because its our thing. Its the only thing I get to do with her, that no one else can do. I have to stop because Chloe likes to eat more milk then I have, which caused me to supplement. The mixture of both breast milk and formula was too much for her. She was having problems going poop and the past two days shes had an upset belly.

I'm just really bummed out that I could only make it two and a half weeks. Plus, formula is quite expensive.


[Chloe has been awesome though, shes already getting so big and shes starting to smile!]

Meet Chloe

Hi everyone,

I'd like you too meet my gorgeous daughter Chloe. She was born March 1st at 10:33 am and weighed 7.4 lbs, 20 inches long. She has some light hair and blue eyes.

I know its been awhile... BUT here she is...




I started having back pains the day before around 1:30 pm as the day progressed they were getting pretty bad. Later that night I was laying in bed, about to take a nap when I started having contractions. At first they were about 8 minutes apart and I wasn't sure if they were contractions so I messaged my mom to By the time she made it over, contractions were about 4-5 minutes apart. I didn't go straight to the hospital because I was told if it wasn't 3 minutes apart they would send you home. I went to the hospital not long after and the nurse sent me home because I was having "false labor". I went home, layed in my bed for another two hours and went back to the hospital. By then I am laying in trioge, contractions speeding up, back labor, no medication... for hours. Finally around 6 am or so, I'm put into my room.. still no meds. I keep asking for the epideral and all I kept hearing was "we have to wait for the doctor". The nurse FINALLY suggests phetenol until I can have the epideral.. I don't know where she was when I was saying "I don't care what it is just give me something". The gas mask was horrid and phetenol took away the back pain. THEN I was told I couldn't have the epideral, and the phetenol ran out, me = not happy. Then the doctor goes poking around to break my water, hitting Chloe's head in the process.. my water had already broken, just not a big gush. I finally had her after 15 minutes of pushing. Her cord was wrapped around her neck, but luckily she was fine. So the hours of pain, worth it.

I have been super busy the past week and I have been meaning to get on here and youtube to update everyone. I have been breastfeeding and it has been more difficult than I had imagined.

God, I love her so much. I can't believe she is here! She has brought the sun into my life and I couldn't be any happier (well... maybe with a tad more sleep haha). Chloe is a quiet baby, hardly ever crys, dosn't like bath time yet, prefers to sleep about 19 hours out of the day, loves laying with her mommy, gets fusterated easily when it comes to latching on during breastfeeding, likes to go pee when changing her, and mostly.. she loves laying skin to skin, and so do I! I could lay all day with her.

Gotta run, She just woke up!

Awe I love her :)
