Guest guest Posted April 20, 1999 Report Share Posted April 20, 1999 And your words of wisdom. Austin is doing better. I think he has scabbed over in there, but his tongue is quite swollen. He still is not nursing. I keep offering. He just puts it in his mouth & holds it there. I know he wants to, it just hurts to much right now to suck. I did get a breast pump. I was able to get 1 meezly ounce. (I have never been a good pumper!) After he had tried to nurse I offered it to him. He just looked at this tiny cup & put a taste in his mouth. His face lite up so bright! He got this HUGE smile on his face & gave me the biggest hug!! He loves his mommies milk!! I will freeze anymore that I pump for BM popcicles. Going to my LLL was just what I needed. Our leader feels that it would take 1-2 weeks for him to forget how to nurse. I am hoping that this will only last a few days & once the swelling is down all systems will be go! I will keep you posted. Amber has her pin extraction's tomorrow @ 10am. Keep us in your thoughts! I hope this all ends soon! I am not sure how much more I can take!!! Cristina Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
