I love all the help, by the way!
So we did better today... nursing is still stuck at about 10 minutes before she wears out and sleeps, but she also suckles much better once we get her latched. If she keeps falling asleep while we're trying to latch, I'm giving up, letting her rest for a little while and then waking her back up.
Today so far... let's see....
9:15 am -- boob for 15 minutes
9:35 am -- pee
11:15 -- pee
11:17 -- boob for 20 minutes (best latch ever!), did another 5 minutes later
11:35 or so -- pee
1:30 -- attempted feeding, no waking up
2:20 -- boob for 15 minutes
4:20 -- boob for 10 min
5:00 -- VERY fussy... Mommy was sleeping and Daddy had her
6:30 -- boob for 10 minutes, changed pee before
6:45 -- big pee, some farting with a little bit of poo in it (but nothing big)
So far, that's not too bad.... still would like to see some longer feedings, but now that I'm getting a handle on the engorgement, it might help her suckle longer. When she gets a good latch, she is getting a lot of deep sucks.
Hopefully Mommy can get a little nap in between all the BF tonight!
