A good few days
Molly started to laugh today. It was awesome. I took a million shots trying to capture it and luckily this was one of them. We're both feeling so much better. Feeding is finally working for us. My lactation counsellor warns me that breastfeeding is like giving birth in that there will be times when you make progress and times when you backslide but not to get too stressed about it. Molly seems to be on a 3-4 hour schedule which is great. I actually feel like I have so much free time now since she sleeps a lot of the time. I could actually be pretty productive if I didn't spend most of my time 'HOLDING BABY'. She is already teaching me so much about enjoying the moment and not trying to rush through life.
At this time I would also like to send out a formal thank-you to my two angels of mercy from this week. I don't think I could've survived without the help of Ang and the Rapper. Ang for her words of wisdom, breast pump, and sense of humour. Michelle for her time, lunch, cookies, company, and total support.
