Lactation

So tomorrow I'm going to Children's for my last ditch effort at the breastfeeding thing. I have always wanted to be able to breastfeed, but I'm not having much more luck with Maddy than I did with Reagan. Both girls had different issues, but neither one was/is able to latch successfully and/or get milk from me. Frustrating as hell.

I know I have more milk this time. It's been proven. But Maddy is so aggressive that I can't physically manage it. Some days I breastfeed (SNS) all day long, others (like today) I can't think of it. Sigh...

I'm hoping for a miracle.

One interesting thing - I started taking the Reglan. I think it's actually improved my mood and I'm less tired. Very interesting. It's supposed to "depress you" and make you tired. Hmmm. Am I that weird?

Well, I'm almost four weeks into baby number two and I'm praying, literally, for a miracle.
