Evening jam session with daddy

Every night after the big girls go to bed I hold Cassidy- Tim waits on me and we hang out while she snoozes til her evening feeding.  I <3 her sweet sweet sleeping peacefulness!!!

We are loving life!  I am so happy it is finally warm!  We have been taking lots of walks and going to the park.  Cassidy is getting used to being outside and likes it a lot! 

Realized I hadn’t done a breastfeeding update- since there’s not really any good pics I can post I thought I would just do a quick update.  Cassidy is an excellent nurser (is that a word??)  She nurses every 3-4 hours during the day.  She still only nurses on one side per feeding.  My milk is keeping up and I am still taking a maintenance dose of domperidone 30mg a day, fenugreek & blessed thistle.  She LOVES to nurse.  Is not a huge fan of the bottle but will take enough to tide her over til the next feeding- usually 2.5-3 ounces.  I LOVE breastfeeding her!  I am so very thankful for the opportunity to do so.  It has really helped me bond with her and the time I spend nursing her is so special to me.  I get some pretty funny looks sometimes when I am breastfeeding her- but it doesn’t bother me one bit- go ahead and look Sometimes I get questions which I don’t mind answering at all.  Gives me a chance to talk about how God led me to inducing lactation and I’m so glad He did!  I get asked a lot how long I will breastfeed her and the answer is hopefully at least a year- we’ll see how it goes!
