Hi all
Strange thing is happening. Daniel is very keen on breastfeeding lately. (I know it sounds strange, some of you know the story, in short-I had problems with breastfeeding right from beginning, like-not enougth milk, last one-Danny discovered he prefers bottle, and it took ages to get him back on breastfeeding, and still he was more keen on a bottle). He is very happy to breasfeed all the time. It really makes me happy too, but I never had enought milk just to breastfeed him, so I had to top it up with formula. But, last week or so he finally understood that mummy's milk is better. Like if before, if he had formula, he had 5-6-7oz with no problems, now 3-4 is very good. And, ONLY if I give it to him. Neither my OH can do it (2oz is max for him) neither can my mum. I am breastfeeding him before each bottle, so in the end he either takes what he takes or is refusing it alltogether. So...Question why? Is it because it is just the stage (he is teething as well), or, is it because I suddenly started to have more milk? (If it is the second I would be very pleased). PS: he doesnt look hungry most of the time, I havent weight him for 2 weeks cos of x-mas, so next weigh in next Wednesday.
