Talking

My milk has come in!!!


I'm so excited that my milk has come in I was worried because when we left the hospital Connor was only 6lbs but between feeding and the occasional pump he has started to gain a bit toward his birth weight (6lb 5oz)

That's great lucky!
When my milk came in (day 3 post partum) it was one of the most painful things I have ever experienced. I thought I was gonna die, but the pump literally saved my life.

OMG I know my boobs felt like they were on fire and I had a fever. Luckily it only went on like that for a day, when it first started happening I worried it would be like that for days or weeks!!
