Default One Milestone Down (long)

Just so you feel better Phoebe, we've been dumping about an ounce of milk
every day. DH comes home from work, tries to give DD a bottle (I try to put
a bit less than an ounce in the bottle just in case she does eat) and then
when DD won't take it, we throw it out. I only pump about two ounces in 20
minutes, so it's a bit frustrating. OTOH, if this is what it takes to help
DD take a bottle, then I'm willing to stick with it. (However, when I think
about the amount of milk I've dumped and the number of women who are sure
they're not making enough, it seems tragic.)

If it's any consolation, one of the bottles had 2 ounces and
one had only one ounce, so it's not quite as bad as it could
have been.

Just know that some women find it very frustrating to dump milk, but
sounds like you did right.

Dawn, typing fast, sprog meltdown imminent
