These pics were taken right before I decided to throw in the towel on breastfeeding. When I was taken to the OR after Henry’s delivery, they gave me a drug called Ketomene ( a freaking HORSE tranquilizer!!) and they told me that I couldn’t breast feed until 24 later. So Henry never really learned how to latch on and it was a horrible, painful week and half following. We even had a private lactation consultant visit the house to help us out, but it didn’t work. Finally, 10 days later with me chapped and bleeding and HATING every minute of breast feeding, Tom said “No More! I can’t see you like this!” So we went back to formula and I’m honestly glad I did. A lot more people can help and I’m not in pain all the time. It was probably one of the best decisions I made.
