My son was born 8 lbs 15 oz on January 4, 2013. He was in the hospital for 5 days because I had a c-section. He lost 1 lb and the doctors were really concerned. My milk didn't come in until the 4th. I tried to beastfeed him but he didnt want to, so I started pumping and feeding him by bottle. He started gaining weight slowly so I didn't try to put him on the breast because I wanted to to gain more weight.
It costs me money to keep this site running. If I've made your day easier it would be really helpful for me if you could spare a few dollars to help me keep the site running with useful, current information! It's your way of saying
