Thanks Barb, i can always rely on you!
I know everything you say is right. And i was so thankful that i was breast feeding when she was in the clinic, limp, sad and needing IV fluids. I tell you what my nipples were sore after that 48hrs! She sucked and sucked and sucked.
I got Malaria just as she was recovering so i guess that's the root of it really. I am tired, no not tired, exhausted, trying not to get dehydrated and A LOT less patient than usual. On the upside i am out of bed and showered today for the first time since Friday, so things are looking up! After a good nights sleep things should be much better.

I am so thankful she is still BF, it is so much easier to comfort her and rehydrate her.

Thanks again for replying Barb.

ETA- Arcadia- that drives me nuts!
