Off nipple shields!

Finally we are off nipple shields (I think)! Bub is 3 months & I started using shields at 1.5 weeks due to initial strong suck causing bruised & bleeding nipples by 3 days old... After a couple of weeks when healed I tried without the shield and bub screamed & screamed, used to the silicone taste & thinking I wasn't feeding her... Every week or so I have tried without shield & had a screaming bub until I gave the shield. Yesterday I tried & she latched on & kept drinking for a full feed! No shields the next 4 feeds also 24 hours on - yay, no more cleaning shields!

Congrats. We used shields for about 3 weeks and it's so messy and less discrete it's so good to get rid of them

Starting TWW. Anyone else?

I had a stillborn daughter at 38 weeks this passed Nov. This is my second month ttc. (Last month we only tried for like two weeks though). My last and only pregnancy, I got pregnant the first month of ttc so I hope it's quick this time again.

leahbeth I'm so sorry :( hopefully your cycle continues and you get another shot next month.
