in preparations for christmas, while cleaning the house, my mom put my nipple shield away somewhere and couldn't find it. i was feeling optimistic and wanting to try latching gemma on again, so jesse went out to buy another one... but bought the wrong size...
but, it turned out to be a blessing in disguise. this new shield worked like a charm and i could REALLY breastfeed without pain. i was pumping less now, though at this point could get about 6 oz from each breast.... um yeah. that's a lot.
christmas came and went, as did jesse's family. gemma got to meet her grandparents and aunt and uncle. also got totally spoiled.
by end of week 3, 30 lb down. the last 8 lb are still here 6 weeks later, however...
continuing on seaweed soup...
