Our LO is 6 months and after latch issues, a bout of mastisis and then struggling with supply issues and then finally getting a prescription to domperidone. We made it to the half way mark. I am so happy to be able to provide breast milk exclusively for my LO. My supply is great now since the domperidone and we are doing great. I just thought I would share, our success and give encouragement to those who are struggling. GL to all my e'ping mommas =)

Still EPing. My LO has a very deep palet which caused many issues with her latch. We tried for about 3 weeks to get her to latch properly but had no success. Luckily my MIL's neighbor works for a medical supply store and was kind enough to lend us the medela symphony free of charge =) I did try to latch her on again a month and a half ago to help with my supply issues and because she is teething she would just bite down on me so I decided to let any hopes of latching her again go.

Congratulations!!! That's amazing! Now I challenge you to 9 months, I know you can do it! You are an amazing mommy for giving your baby the best. She will thank you for it in good health, intelligence, a happy tummy and so many smiles :)
What a beautiful name she has.
