Ribh's D'Coopage

[Aussie-Chookmum]

Three weeks early & so small & delicate! Most babies like falling asleep on me. I must be very dull!

Not dull Ribh...tranquil

My son would cry and cry. Then as soon as my mother came home from work - he absolutely shut up. She'd hold him and he was good all the time.

Did find out though he was colicky because I had a very strong stream of milk, and he couldn't swallow fast enough to deal with it. Much later I learned you should let that
go down the sink until it's not a raging river but just a nice stream.

I didn't learn at home because my mother never nursed and neither did my sister or my niece(had 2 kids. I was the odd one. Got a lot of self esteem from nursing though, could have fed triplets. Even though I was small but, they weren't phonies.

PS when I was nursing him, the other faucet would be shooting milk to the ceiling. Try explaining those stains to someone.

That brings back memories. I shot both the kid's Godfather and my husband in the eye on two separate occasions.

I missed not being able to nurse. I tried my hardest, but just never had a supply. Poor Anna was screaming and losing weight, I finally had to give in to formula.
