I'm back. My last post was when my first son was almost 1 and I found out I was pregnant with number 2. So I stopped writing as I felt that I had my hands full. Well they are still full but sharing makes you a bit less crazy. My daughter arrived in early August.
So my first post was mentioned as a joke! I have family in down and am always asked "when was she feed last?" so I told my husband, I should just get out a whiteboard. There is is.. I should of that would have been so helpful. Unfortunately, the last of my baby help leaves in 3 days but until then I have put a "LAST FEED" sheet on the fridge.
The first two weeks of breastfeeding are definitely the hardest, I really had to fight to get through (even the second time). I think it is natural to assume a crying baby is a hungry baby... this whiteboard idea would help folks know that MAYBE it is something else. It is really hard to not feel like a cow while you are breastfeeding. Serious but true.
Anyways, maybe one of you will take up the Feeding White Board idea. Until next time, V

ohh yes, that is so true. The most frustrating thing as a mom, when everybody else thinks food is always the answer for crying..... I feel with you.
