My mood while writing this blog: Happy!

Hello Ladies!

For some reason I thought I would fall off this site once my baby came, but I'm on here even more now! LOL,,(weird)

WELL as far as breastfeeding my little man wouldn't latch on for DEAR GOD after I had him, so I talk to my charge nurse/ friend and she told me to talk a really HOT shower and run the water over my breast mainly my nipples afterward take warm rag just before you ready to feed your baby and massage your nipples really good, (this should not hurt, you want to massage them so it feel sensational to yourself) it stimulates the milk. Well ladies I been doing that and my baby boy is sucking the HECK on my breast, He is ONLY on breast milk right now because so much come out, I use both breast, when he's dont all together I massage my own breast to make more come out and try to feel up a 20oz bottle and freeze it for later (just in case my breast get dry on me one day before I'm ready) I now have 7 20oz bottles in the freezer, I AM SO PROUD of myself, breastfeeding is something I REALLY wanted to do especially after they told me I would drop more weight doing it. My grand total of weight gain was...........................................................................................................................................................
91 pounds!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! But after these 6 weeks I dont care if I have to eat grass, this weight is coming off, I give myself until Christmas and I BETTER have a flat stomach, my DH is a personal trainer part time so he was able to get me a REALLY good trainer for a good price, (I CANNOT work out with him, we be n the gym fighting and throwing water bottles at each other..LMAO)

Well thats all for now, I wish everyone much sucess in their pregnancy, trying to get pregnact (TTC), and my new mothers.

)))))BIG HUGS(((((
