Had a great night sleep last night! Another 7hrs between feeds. I woke 3 times to check on her as she was stiring, but when I'd go into her roomhe'd already be back to sleep. Feeling great again today!
Catherine - I have been told not to let Tiera dummy suck on the breast. There are a lot of reason for it, such as, she maybe snack feeding and when it comes to 6 weeks when they have their first growth spirt, they'll be so use to feeding often, that they're quite unsettled and may stay hungry, it doesn't give your nipples much chance to settle after each feed and can cause damage (my midwife in hospital told me this as at the end of each feed, Tiera would dummy suck my breast and I was told to take her off for this reason). In saying all of this, you have to do what you feel is best for you and your baby... Mums know what is best for their own baby!
I am adjusting to the dummy... DH is happy I am coming around to the idea. She looks really cute when she's sucking away on it!
Tiera has just woken for a feed, then we are off shopping! She's a little cutie!!!![]()
