    Thanks for checking in ladies. We have just got home. All went ok. Although when she woke up from anesthetic she wanted a feed but she couldn't attach. Her gum was numb from the local anesthetic they used, so I guess it felt funny. She screamed for an Hour and a half. She was trying to attach but wouldn't bring her tongue forward and actually suck. it was horrible, nothing would settle her. But finally she remembered how to do it, I guess when the numbness wore off and then she fed ok. She's been pretty sleepy but we've managed a couple of feeds.
    Glad that's over!

    I spent the time from when they took her away to when I saw her biting the inside of my cheeks and driving myself crazy with thoughts if them letting her scream. And then I thought she'd never breastfeed again! I've given myself a headache.
