So I thought that Taylor was going to be low maintenance since Tanner was high...well not the case. While we had issues with Tanner breastfeeding and it took so much to resolve them we did resolve them. Now Taylor has the opposite issue...she nurses great but wouldn't take the bottle. With the help from an army we now have her taking the bottle during the day and even managed to mix in some formula to the breastmilk. It has been a challenge to find the right formula. Some make her to gassy and she threw up the soy twice. I am now trying the lactose free...keep your fingers crossed. I have been able to pump a good amount but want to make sure things are well established before going back to work. She knows what she wants and is a tough girl to change her mind.
My friend Jen got her lactation consultant certification after we both had the breastfeeding issues with our first children (she used the lactation consultant I used) Her baby breastfed well but she had some physical issues to overcome (Kennedy had a problem that made her suck differently) If you have problems call Jen...she is great!!!

Glad all is well with the little ones. Amazing how diffrent kids can be, but also so much a like.
