Hospital visit!
I went to the hospital last night by myself (that’s the 1st time I went by myself). I got to feed both Daniel and Andrew! It was wonderful! Oh and the best part, they allowed me to “try” nursing Andrew last night! Unfortunately, he wasn’t sure what to do once he was on my breast…so needless to say, we didn’t do too well. But at least I was able to get him to latch on a couple times (even if he didn’t suck). The nurse said that it’ll take some time to get him to know what to do, but he’ll get it. I didn’t get the chance to try Daniel, he had been having a little bit of issues with eating and had a feeding tube back in…but they weren’t using it unless it was necessary…he had been taking his feedings by bottle, but there are times it takes him too long to eat so they feed it through the tube. I guess if it takes too long to eat, they burn up more calories than if they would have eaten quicker.
Here’s hoping that there aren’t any more issues and that I get the chance to nurse them both soon!! Not to mention them coming home quickly!!
I feel…: hopeful
