Camden is now officially on strictly formula. I quit pumping last week. It was a tough decision, but pumping was becoming a waste. I wasn't even getting a bottles work after pumping 3 times in a day. My last straw, was going 8 hrs, not feeling full and only getting a ounce in a half after pumping. He finished up everything I had frozen this week. I still feel guilty and wish I was still actually nursing, but what can a girl do? I would have to have him on formula by the time I went back to work, anyway. And that is in 3 wks. It is what it is. He is happy and healthy and that is all that really matters.
Tomorrow, we also are going back to the 2 places we are considering for daycare. One is a actual daycare, and the other is a at home day care. They both have pros and cons. But, I think I like the at home provider better. It is a lot farther away from our house then the other place but it is worth it. Oh, I can't believe I go back to work in 3 wks. Before I went on leave, 12 wks seemed like an eternity to be off. Boy, was I wrong, it is not long enough at all. I wish I lived in Norway, where you get paid to take the first year off. Wouldn't that be nice?!?!
Until tomorrow I leave you with a little cutie pie, named Camden!

I know giving up BF was hard for you. The same thing happened to me. I had to supplement from the get-go. Then, I never really produced. It definitely wasnt worth the stress. You'll probably freek out the first time he catches a cold...I did. I kept thinking, "Why didn't I BF longer?" But, like you said, it is what it is, and let me tell you...if he is in a larger daycare, a cold is bound to happen sooner than later.
Happy 2 Months Camden! My little boy will be FOUR MONTHS Wednesday. And he is already in 6-9 months clothes. Seriously? Where has the time gone, and how do we make it stop????
