I can’t belive that last week Tycho turned 3 months! It has been an amazing time, sure very hard with the weight gain issues and the feeding but it is all worth it with all the smiles and lovely times we have had. It DOES get easier it is true what they say. And I think it is also true that nothing can prepare you, no matter how many things you read! (more…)

I had a horrible horrible text today from my best friend back in Sweden telling me her unborn baby has died 10 days before its due date. I just have not been able to stop crying since. My friend and me have exchanged almost daily emails for years and the last months comparing notes on our pregnancies. She already has a little boy and was the expert I went to when I wanted advice and she has been almost my biggest suporter in her emails with regards to my breastfeeding issues. She has kept me grounded when all my worries gets out of hand. And what she is going through now I can’t even pretend to understand, it is just so sad and so unfair.
My thoughts are with you today min älskade vän.

I have been thinking a lot of breastfeeding lately, not so strange maybe. But I think these last 8 weeks or so I have learnt more about it than I ever thought possible. Like how important it is to keep on feeding, even when you think there is no milk as it works as a supply and demand situation. Miss out on a feed or substitute it with a bottle and you are missing out on a demand and hence get less supply. I wish I fully would have understood this back in week 3 when I gave in to supplement with a bottle. (more…)
