Just another quick update....

Although i've been in a lot of pain with thrush and staph in my breasts, it looks like all my hard work has paid off. Isobel was weighed on Friday and she had gained 280gm in a week!!!! We are so thrilled!

We plan on continuing with our current routin for another week when we need to take the hired breast pump back then I will see how Izzy goes without the EBM top ups after every feed. I will slowly drop the EBM bottles this week so hopefully she'll learn to take more from the breast and not just expect the top up, IYKWIM.

Cross your fingers for us. I desperately want to continue breastfeeding. Let's hope little Izzy has now got the strength she needs to live off her mummy's boobs
