DD took 2 ozs from a bottle today!!!!

Woohooo!!!!

She managed about 15 mls (1/2 oz) yesterday, which is more than usual,
and then BF'd ALL night and for 45mins straight at lunch. Today I had a
meeting so I BF'd her at 9am for 30 mins, but didn't get back as fast
as I'd hoped so the sitter tried with the bottle, and after a few
minutes DD latched on and sucked! Yeah!!!!

I never thought I'd be so thrilled with her taking a bottle. And tho I
will try to go most days to feed her at lunch, I often have meetings
across town and won't be able to. So this is a HUGE relief. And tho
yesterday she looked at me with that 'where are you going mommy?" look,
today she just looked around the room at the kids and smiled.

Wonderful! :-)

that's fab, she will get there, in the end, babies have a survival instinct,
they do what they've got to do, just crossing my fingers the bottles will
get easier and easier and she won't reversecycle too much
