Hollye that sounds great! I'll try to pick some up tomorrow. Wow, only 1 hour...imagine that....
He's latched on and fed 'sans-sheild' again a couple of times today which is encouraging. He gets frustrated after a bit though and just wants what he's used to. But it feels like we're actually moving to the reality of being without it.
The breast he seemed to be getting nothing from this morning, he did the same thing with today. Buuuut, I noticed that side had deffinitely been leaking quite a bit (sorry for the mental picture). I haven't tried reading up on it yet, but do bubs sometimes refuse just one breast for any reason?

I'm not actually too worried about the insurance. It's a pretty small town and I'll only be doing short trips. One of the MW's in hospital had mentioned the 6 weeks. I might call just to make sure so I at least know where I stand (not planning on any accidents though ). As far as being physically able I know it shouldn't be an issue.

Did anyone notice it's nearly Christmas? Where did that come from???
