I keep seeing all these mothers posting their #normalizebreastfeeding photos, and I think it's great. After battling myself for a week, I've decided I wanted to share Charlee Ann's feeding journey...

We've never shared that amazing bond so many women who breastfeed talk about.

She spent the first 54 days of her life in the NICU, after the first week I was able to hold her for the very first time. And she was given a NG Tube a few days later. I pumped every single day for her stay in the hospital, giving her all the breast milk I could until my supply finally ran out. After those 3 months, we came home from the hospital and she was finally able to come off the tube, but by then she was drinking formula solely.

Today at almost 6 months Charlee struggles to gain weight, she has really bad reflux and is in the 1% weight percentile. But she is the happiest baby I've ever seen, and she has gotten to every single milestone thus far, beautifully!

So please let's recognize that #fedisbest ! #nicusurvivor #mybabyisafighter #feedingawareness #momlife

I can't take it anymore! Haley (yes my 1mth old and no I wasn't able to go through this "joy" of nursing my older daughter, Molly) has been screaming non stop for 6hrs! All she wants to do is eat and I can't have her attached to me all day, everyday! She has wanted to eat every hr on the hr for the past 3hrs! I put her in her room so I don't scream at her but I just can't take it!

Baby won't bear weight on leg

Baby won't bear weight on leg I have a walking 10 month old and she has been extra fussy yesterday and today. Today I noticed she didn't really want to crawl, she would just cry until I came and picked her up. After I fed her, I tried setting her down to play with her big sister and she just started crying and wouldn't put any weight on her left leg. She will put weight down on her right leg but then just cries until you pick her back up. I thought maybe she just didn't want to be put down (as baby's often do). I tried a few more times over the next 30 minutes and she still won't put any weight on it. I had a meeting (I work from home), so I took her upstairs to my husband. She is now playing with her siblings and happy, but he text me (from upstairs) and says she still won't put weight on it. She is just sitting there playing.

Will your Mom be in the delivery room?

Will your Mom be in the delivery room? My mom made it sound like she was gonna be in the delivery room when I give birth, and quite frankly, I would just like it to be me and my fiancé. It's our first, and I want to share that special moment with just him. I don't want to hurt her feelings, and I know this is something she would really like to be a part of. So I feel bad telling her no.
