Bits and pieces of the baby days of my fourth and last child and the only little boy in our household. Adam was born with a Congenital Heart Defect, he had open-heart surgery at 4 months and 11 days, came home after 4 days and has been gaining weight on breast milk ever since. To say he is a pleasure, a joy, a miracle, a wonder, my favorite boy in the whole world, ... all understatements!

Breastfeeding Tip #1
When your baby lets go of the breast give him the other side, when he lets go of that side give him the first side again. Keep going back and forth from one breast to the other until he stops latching on. He may grow up confused wondering how many breasts you actually have, but you can be sure he is getting as much opportunity to nurse as he needs and your breasts are both getting a turn to feed him.
