F/u to breastfeeding woes
We had Grier's pedi appt on Friday. She's just shy of 2 weeks old and is almost back to her birth weight. She gained 9oz since her weight check a week ago. Our pedi is awesome and listened to all of my concerns about her nursing. He reassured me that it was normal newborn behavior (you nesties were right again! 
) and that I was doing something right because she's gaining weight. We've figured out that she's difficult to burp, so I think that was part of the problem, too. The last 2-3 days have been better and I was actually able to pump yesterday so I could get out of the house. Reese and I took a much needed shopping trip to get her big girl undies. Her and I both needed the time together! We have to go to the hospital on Monday for Grier's 2 week bloodwork, so I'm going to meet with a lc, just to make sure I'm doing everything right! Thank you for all of your kind words and encouragement! (sorry for no paragraphs-I'm on my phone!)
