HE NURSED!! HE NURSED!!

I honestly can't believe I am posting this right now! When Chase woke up this morning, I offered and he nursed like nothing ever happened! I am so shocked. On Friday night, I offered almost absentmindedly before bed and he actually tried to latch for a second, which had been his best effort so far. I told my DH "At least he tried. Even if he never goes back, at least we both tried". He did the same thing yesterday morning, tried to latch for a second. Last night, after his 1st birthday party (loooooong day, we were all beat) I took him up to bed and tried to nurse him and he latched and gave a few sucks before stopping.


This morning, I went and got him and had his sippy cup ready in case he refused. I offered and he nursed just like before. I am so happy right now,

YEAH!!!!!!!!


I think it likely was still hurting him before and now that things are finally healing more it is more comfy for him!


I hope he keeps it up!


Hang in there.....things are on the upswing!
