So I thought I had AF start on the 29th, it lasted for 4 days. Then I had AF start again on the 3rd, it is still here. So was the 29th AF or is the 3rd AF?
I am going to guess that the 29th was and so is the 3rd - with the nursing and the domperidone and having given birth, I think that the uterus is still shrinking down and the body is still trying to get rid of the excess blood.
I would say that my next cycle would truely be a normal cycle - hopefully it doesnt show up for a few more weeks though, then I can start to figure out my timing again.
Tomorrow is the La.Lache.Leage meeting over at a coffee shop down the way from the base, Aedyn and I are going to take a chance and attend the meeting. I am hoping to meet other mommies and find some support for the over flow of emotions I am having for not being able to produce enough for her.
Thursday is here 2 month appointment, so I will get to find out how much she now weighs and how much taller she is - hopefully she is doing great even though she still doesnt eat much at all.
well she is crying now, so I am going to sign off and give her lots of hugs and kisses :)

I am struggling with the prospect that I may not be able to nurse much longer. I know that I basically still have a "trickle" of milk, enough that Caroline will still suck, but she's not getting anything to really contribute to filling her up. I nurse in the evening a couple times, and first thing in the morning, but I always follow with a bottle. She seems happy, though, and it's enough to satisfy my "emotional need" to nurse. It was HORRIBLE emotionally the first couple of weeks...feeling like a failure, etc. I am just such a perfectionist that it irked me that I couldn't carry out my plan. If I had made the conscious decision NOT to nurse, I wouldn't have had such a hard time. I think I'm okay now, but I'm sure I'll be pretty down when it completely dries up. :( Hang in there...I know how you feel! :)
Hi Christine. Good luck at LLL today. I hope you post on the meeting.
