+ Busy busy busy +
I'm waaay too busy today for a long post, but just an update... Talked to Vicki at daycare, and we had a fabulous meeting of the minds. She completely understood everything, and even brought up things I was going to bring up first. You're getting 6 2-ish ounce bottles every 2 hours (or more if needed) instead of 4 4 oz. bottles. This is what I'd wanted in the beginning. Plus, if you're sucking on things, it is not always a hunger cue, little girl. I've learned that. You just like to suck. I call you my "crazy sucker." You will suck on anything, period. In fact, you get so carried away sucking, you spit your pacifier out accidentally all the time. It's not that you don't want it, you just get carried away. So we bought a couple of different kinds of paci's to experiment with at daycare. But we'll see how this goes. I finally got the message across to Maria this morning that the formula is for "emergencies" only, and they are to call me first. This was Vicki's insistance. And to make it formal, I wrote up full instructions for Vicki this morning on how I want her feedings handled and why.

I feel sooooooo much better now. And of course, I'm pumping more. Not tons, but yesterday was my best day ever, and I'm one oz. away from that today (and I still have my afternoon session, so I should surpass that). Woo-hoo! I'm still not pumping enough during work alone for daycare, but I'm getting closer. *fingers crossed*
