Toby is sick. Sheesh. He's all snorky and grumpy... poor baby.
So here comes the mommy guilt... not about letting him eat a popsicle off the kitchen floor... that was after he was already sick, okay?
*WARNING- breastfeeding talk* No, this is the not-breastfeeding mommy guilt. I weaned Toby a month or so ago... the pregnancy was affecting my supply a lot, and the poor kid was hungry. And I miss nursing him. It was one of my favorite things.... But also, in the month and a half on formula, he has pretty much been sick the whole time, on and off. Thus, mommy guilt.
I made an apple pie last night. It was rockin. I think I shall have some for breakfast.

Hey Jess...stop beating yourself up. You know I'm a huge advocate of bf, but...I bf Nate for only 4 months and Sammy for 14 months. Nate is the healthiest kid...Sammy is the one that is almost always snotty and snorky. And Lucas is the one who got croup (while bf) the other week. Go figure.

I know bf has enormous benefits lasting into adulthood, but the fact is -- kids get sick even if we bf till they are 5 and spray everything they touch with that Clorox stuff. It happens. Nursing Toby for as long as you did was awesome and gave him what he needed. Now QMC needs you. God will take care of the rest. Take some extra time to snuggle with Toby and live guilt free knowing that you are a GREAT mom.

and yes, Jess... do not worry... let guilt glide away...

everything will turn out...

what formula is ToeBee on? is it possible he needs a different kind? or vitamin supplements? they say Vit A and C help alot with respiratory system and teething and all the mucous membranes... even help teeth come in more easily... you know those little dropper bottles of vitamins the pediatricians give out??? is he on vits?

Chuck was breastfed........

Rob and Rich for 3 or 4 months....


I always thought that breast fed babies grew taller and that it was all my fault that Rich and Rob stopped at 6 ft.

last!
