Successful day!
Charlotte tolerated the breast at every feed today. I won’t be BF’ing her at her 1am feed b/c I am about to go to bed. At 830p she was fussy and I latched her on around 845p. She calmed down in less than a minute and genuinely tried to nurse for about 30min or so. She even fell asleep and continued to try and nurse – not just gumming either. I am definitely feeling good after today. Even if she doesn’t end up nursing for nutrition, at least I will KNOW that we gave it our best shot and it is a source of comfort for BOTH of us!
