    Smile My little woohoo

    I have to share my little woohoo with the people that have known my past difficulties with breastfeeding my first 3 children.

    It's taken 4th time lucky to get it right.

    DD3 has not had one drop of formula - she's 12 days old. May not seem like much, but the best record I had before that was 2.5 days with DS.

    And what's even more amazing - she had reached her birth weight at 6 days old, and then at the weigh in today - had gained another 210g in 6 days.

    I'm amazed. And proud. And thankful to my friends giving me support and advice via text/email at all times of the night.

    Just needed to share my woohoo.

    awesome work Mel and Bubba! Fantastic weight and gains! You can do it, you can both do it! Congrats!

    fwiw, my mum had probs with her first 3 (me and 2 bros) then when the youngest came along, it all just worked (plus I think she was utterly determined that THIS TIME it would work LOL) she always says it took all her experience with the first 3 to be able to get it right eventually, then she couldn't get him off LOL.

    You go girl!

    Well done to you and your fabulous bbs!!

    I know how hard you tried with the last three, so it's fabulous that finally that persistence paid off. I'm really impressed that you gave it a shot this time after your disappointment before. Woohoo on the great weight gains too!
