Six months EBF today!
Tinysaurus was six months on the fifth. The nurses at the hospital gave my son formula in the beginning (unnecessarily and against my wishes... horrible hospital experience that I'm trying to forget), but I have been EBF since we left the hospital exactly 6 months ago today!
I never thought I'd make it this long.
I am beyond proud to say that despite all the set backs and road blocks, we have done it as long as we have! I was ready to give up at the hospital, as my nurses were gigantic cunt waffles. I didn't, and I am happy I didn't. Nursing has been a challenging but rewarding experience for me. I hope I can make it to a year, but I'm keeping my expectations realistic for me. I may not make it a year, I may not make it to seven months, but what I have done is more than I ever thought I could! :)

Congratulations! Taking it one day at a time is the only way I make it through too.
