Best feeling ever!

Ok this might be a little much for a blog but I have to share... So since I have had Belle she would not breast feed... she would bite me like crazy. The worst thing is every time I would try she would buckle her mouth and cry. It made me feel so frustrated and sad. So after a month of trying I quit and just pumped. So four months later I am still pumping by hand. This morning I only got not even an ounce of milk. I was so sad.. So for some reason I decided to try breast feeding. And to my suprise Belle did it! And she has all day long! I don't think I could express how this made me feel. I started crying the second time she did it because I am just so grateful and crazy thing she was full which means she got 4 ounces!!! And she is happy! Which makes me soooo extremely happy! I hope she just keeps going!! I was getting so nervous like what if something happens and I can't feed her cause I can't get to formula!!! Oh today was the best feeling ever!!! And I know just who to thank!

Oh Mamie, this makes me so happy to hear! I wondered how you felt about it when you mentioned it to me when we met baby Belle and now it makes me so very happy that you are able to have that with your precious little one!

Mamie!! That is so stinkin' exciting!! I'm so happy for you! I hope she keeps it up too. And if she does and you start to get sore (cuz oh I am...!) don't give up... just bare through it. But if she does give it up oh well, don't stress about it. It does NOT mean you're a bad mom (though that's exactly how WIC makes me feel if I even MENTION not breastfeeding). Oh yay!
