But the most successful moms are the most patient/dedicated ones. It can be hard and some babies just don't breastfeed well. But when mom is calm, baby is calm, and nature usually takes over. Make sure if all goes well with delivery that you are able to do skin to skin IMMEDIATELY after birth. At our hospital we don't take the baby to the warmer or anything. If baby and mom are fine, we put baby right in momma's gown and baby stays there until the first breastfeeding is established (I know, it's gunky, but it's sooo good for you both). 9/10 times baby latches on no problem, and bam, you're breastfeeding. They transition so much better when they're with their mamas. Sorry, didn't mean to go out on a rant. It's going to be wonderful! Happy thoughts from here on out sister!!!!<br /><br />PS) Use your lactation consultants!! They are awesome!!

I was so hopeless when I came home with your Dad when he was a newborn...he had soiled his diaper- It was panic stations for me! Your Grandpa took over and showed me how to do it! Pinky was a marvelous Dad and I know that Brent will be too. Your Mom was marvelous too -she is a natural Mom.Phoebehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10915102695902469685noreply@blogger.com
