I realized today that Calculon and I are producing a Big Gulp of breastmilk every day. Not that I could miss this fact just by opening the freezer. It's getting quite full of little bags of milk, even though I'm taking plenty to the nicu for Isaac. Go me.
We're going to start "recreational" breastfeeding in the next few days, which is basically just getting him in the general area of the nipple and helping him to start making the connection that boobies equal food. He already loves skin-to-skiin snuggling so hopefully this will click in quickly. We don't expect him to actually get anything to eat this way, so he'll still get his tube feedings as usual.
I overdid it yesterday. I'm not all that good at remembering that I had surgery last week and should maybe, I dunno, not be out running around all damn day just because I think I can. So I've been a bit more mellow today.
