Hello again. I wrote a few days ago about a 4 day old sleepy baby who just wouldn't latch on and hadn't had stool by herself. I got a lot of good comments about rousing, latching on, meds during delivery(she was admitted early for kidney stones too-ouch! she said it hurt more than labor, but then she did have an epidural) Anyway to make a long story short baby is doing fine-she visited with a home health care nurse who diagnosed engorgement. They pumped off and baby latched right on. Where was I? I saw this mom and we talked. I don't usually touch moms just go by what the tell me and she seemed full, so we talked about pumping but why wasn't I more aggressive (sp) about it? Has anyone else ever missed something so simple? I really feel inadequate. A high note though. I spoke to some WIC moms at a support group and a medical person there called me today to find out about what course I took. She really wanted to do something to help other mothers. She said I was the inspiration she needed to go ahead and do it. That brought me back up again. Thanks for listening.
