Quite and Stillness of Breastfeeding

Addison is now 12 days old, she is wonderful. I had some problems breastfeeding. She has a strong suck and my poor nipples got so raw, I had a break down by the morning of day #4. I called my midwife and she was at my house with in 30 mins. She will never know how much she has touched our lives. I went again yesterday for help to get off the nipple sheilds, so far so good.

Addison, is just wonderful. I am amazed with having a girl. Its different, so different. Its hard to get used to he diaper area. When are you know is boy, boy, boy, its hard to get used to. We are taking it one change at a time.

God bless this little one.

One week old

Wow, we made it through the first week. Addison is so perfect. I cant seem to put her down. She has my heart in the palm of her hand already. We have had a few problems. Breast feeding is not going as well as i hoped. I am having to use nipple shelds, but she is feeding well so i can not complane too much. The other problem we are having is sleep. She is up alot at night and its hard to get rest. But last night she did really well. I am about to change her and rub her down with olive oil and lavender oil to calm her then feed her and get her in bed. Wish us luck.
