Lactation consult

December 11th, 2007 | Category: Lex

Today we had a consultation with the lactation specialist and dietician at Emanuel hospital. Now another two ladies have seen my breasts. I have lost count over the last month of how many strangers have seen my bare chest. I guess modesty goes out the window with motherhood…

Lex performed quite well at the visit and we weighed him before and after the nursing session.  I am going to start breastfeeding him more often and we’ll continue to give the bottle afterward to “top him off.”  We’re going to start weaning off the Enfamil calorie supplement as well.  Two of his bottle feedings will now be straight breast milk.
