Day Twenty Nine and Day Thirty
6:25 amDay 29 - hopes, dreams, and plans for the next 365 days
I hope Ernest will get the hang of breastfeeding, and if he can't that I can pump for him for as long as possible,and stop feeling like a failure.
I dream of not much these days, and I don't really make plans more than a few days ahead.
Day 30 - a dream for the future
I dream of a long contented future with what remains of my family, and hopefully one day lots of grand children too.

Jeanette you're not a failure, quite the opposite, look how chunky Ernest is getting on your milk alone. He's had the physical barriers to BF sorted thanks to your tenaciousness. Keeping your supply up is a real achievement. Yay for you.
ReplyDeleteI don't plan very far ahead either so this is a challenge for me too.
ReplyDeleteBut those are my sort of dreams too.
You are SO SO SO not a failure. You're amazing. Completly. Even when Tobias was newborn I could only pump first thing in the morning. The rest of the time I would just get a trickle. So for you to sustain and turn little Ernest in to squishy Ernest is awesome. Completly.
ReplyDeleteI'll add to the chorus - not a failure. Not in the least. Your boy is lucky to have a mama working so hard for him.
ReplyDeleteAlso, your dream for the future sounds so very lovely.
Definitely not a failure on any level. He is getting breastmilk and growing healthy and strong. You have done beautifully.
