Lovely Lactation Consultant

I am not affraid to admit that I am in love with a machine. We went to see the Lactation Consultant (LC) this morning. I started telling her my problems and was fighting back tears (stupid hormones). I rarely cry, but emotions are making me insane lately (another post). Anyway, she was so helpful and kind. She helped fit me with a bra that is actually comfortable & functional. Can you believe I am a 36D? What happened to my cute little 34B? Plus, the LC did the best thing ever - brought out the milk machine for me to rent. She said it might take a couple of times for it to work, but she was wrong. With all the leaking I have been doing, I could have probably filled up gallons. I had 2.5 oz the first time & 2 oz last time. More important though - RELIEF! I guess I should mention that Lexi is getting mother's milk too. Wasn't that the point of this? With all the pain, I forgot.

about me

This blog is like a journal for me. It is also a way for my friends to keep tabs on me.

For people who don't know me, I come from a big family (3 brothers & 1 sister). We moved around a LOT, so I am not really from one particular place. I like to call Katy, Texas my home though.

Recent news, my Dad & Mother-in-Law were diagnosed with Terminal Cancer in April/May of 2005. My dad passed away 5-Dec-05 .

Named after two Greek Goddesses, which were selected because I needed luck for buying a house and getting pregnant. I am not superstitious, but somehow it worked! The house was bought in March & I found out I was pregnant in June of last year.
