sad day

post #1 of 6
Thread Starter 
almost exhausted our freezer stash. started taing domperidone. hasn't kicked in yet. had to make bottles of formula mixed with bm (50/50) until the dom kicks in. i admit that i had more than a few tears.

gave her the first one at 6am. got a huge spit-up bubble. tried to give her one at 10 and she refused. i can't blame her- that stuff is slimy, gross.

so i laid her back down to try to pump anything i could get. we tried at breast and she refused. just the kind of crisis we need two days before i have to start back to school.

i've been pumping for my preemie for 4 months today. we've done reasonably ok but it is like everything is protesting!!!

I'm sorry mamma. Get lots of skin-to-skin contact and let her graze, it might help.

Don't let it get you down mama! You sound like you are doing everything you can at this point. She is a lucky baby!
