UGH. Can this moving stuff be over already?! SO. TIRED. We've been packing, moving, unpacking, and organizing all weekend. My place is still a mess. I swear the next time we go anywhere, it will be into our house! Clutter drives me nuts, so hopefully everything will be done by tomorrow. A big thank you to A and R for spending their last weekend in RI helping us ♥ Love you guys, and miss you already.
School was really good today! It felt good to be back after missing pretty much a whole week due to no sitter for Ari. Tomorrow I'm guessing I'll have to stay home with munchkin, it sucks to miss class but it's important that C is working again. In a month, things should be really bright for us. It's a secret as to why, though! Until the time is right.
Anyway, lately I've been feeling a lot of regret at not being able to breastfeed Ari. I really am unsure why but it's been bothering me. Maybe because everyone seems to be getting pregnant again? She drinks regular milk now - switching to raw! - but so what? I've considered trying fenugreek to boost my supply, but C feels that's "weird", since Ari is 15 months old. I'm also having such a hard time getting him on board for cloth diapers. That's a whole other story, but I must say I think I'm winning this one! (Trust me, I pick and choose my battles ;) I wish I had done all of this research when I first became pregnant, I KNOW things would have been done differently had I been informed like I am now. But I also know that because of the decisions we make/ made, C and I have a beautiful, intelligent, happy and healthy toddler.
I don't plan on having any more children, but this video makes me want to change my mind! I wept. So beautiful, I can't wait to purchase the book ♥

I can totally relate to you with this post Shayna. I was unable to breastfeed and I still think about it everyday. My milk literally never came in, at the time I didn't have the research and everything to know that there were things to boost milk production and everything. It's with me everyday that I couldn't and sometimes it gets to me :(
You must win the battle with CDing! I know you can! :)
Michelle, we are more alike than I thought! haha. My milk didn't come in for a while after I had Ari, and I had a c-section so it was all around not a good experience for me. (Sounds stupid but I felt like less of a mother because I didn't experience any pain like with a normal birth, I never even had one contraction!) Oh, and I am trying like hell to get those cloth diapers! Soo close! ;)
