I am breastfeeding on and off, she gets formula and breast milk, alot of the time as weird as it sounds at night when she is super fussy and won't take a bottle and nothing will calm her down, if I breastfeed her she calms down, and will eventually fall asleep while eating. FIrst thing in the morning I Need to breastfeed her due to I leak quite a bit if I Don't. Then through out the day its on and off between bottle and that, and at night time while I'M sleeping when she wakes up its a bottle. I am a little weirded out by breastfeeding don't know why, but oh well.
Hey you can add me on facebook I can't find you either its Jamie Pohl.

Joyce- hopefully you get to find out what you are having, lots of people seem to be having girls lately.

Keeks- glad to hear Rylen is doing well, my boys were the same way sleeping well when they were newborns, but then when they got older it wasn't the case. It sucked that way.

Hkenny- where have you been? how is everything going?

Krissyy.... I can't believe it.  :)  Little Sky is growing so fast!  Is it hard to be away from her while you are at work?  (Do you pump at all)?  

Keeks- Yay!  I love looking at Rylen on facebook..you should know this, as I comment on how I want to hug him.  He looks so cuddly  :P  haha  
I know Daniel will be out soon, and then we can cuddle!  For now, Dh will have to do, lol.  ;)  No really, he is super great though.

Joyce, you can nurse!  :) If you can do a couple months of nursing, you can do 6 months of it!  I've heard to make sure the latch is correct and that you never try supplementing with formula.  Babies are great at getting all they need, barring any genuine physical problems on either end.

My mom bought me a book called "So that's what they're for!"  I'm already 1/2 way through it, and its super funny and helpful.  I think I'm going to get involved in LLL as well, just for extra support, since I'm going to go back to work after my FMLA leave.

I hope everyone is doing well!  I know I'm starting to hit that wall where I am tired of being tired, sick and heavy feeling.  But I still absolutely love feeling Daniel and the actual carrying him part.

krissyy....i have had several dreams that it is a girl, but then again for the first few months i thought it was twins too....lol....but just a single.  i dont know, with the losses i have had the gender count goes like this...... g,g,b,b,b.....so i guess it just makes sense that this one would even it out and be a girl.  idk maybe i will be wrong...lol

i am planning on nursing for at least a couple of months, but since i never had any luck with it in the past, i am not sure how it will go. still hard to believe that the time has gone by soooo quickly. a few more months and it will be a year since i have been on medhelp...numerous forums but medhelp none the less. seems odd....lol

keeks-i added you on facebook :-)

joyce-can you believe it???  4 mths!  before we know it she will be a year old!  why do you think you are having a girl?  

jamie-skye was a little fussy between 6-7pm before her bath/bedtime routine.  then once she hit 3 months, she hasn't been fussy anymore.  i think she was just getting over exhausted.

anyone breastfeeding??  hows it going?  skye loves her boobie bottle and i think she will have a hard time when we stop breastfeeding.  i hope to go for a year.  i truly love it though...and i will surely miss it!!!

update:  at skye's 4mth appt, she weighs 11lbs15oz and is 25 inches long.  she's in the 15th percentile for weight and 75th for height!  she is long and lean ;-)  she did well for her shots.  cried, of course, then calmed down when comforted.  she is so silly and so much fun!  she changes every day!
