It went well. After all the pumping stress, V only drank one of the three bottles. He preferred the pretzels and of course the brownies. I caught a pee and a poop.
Two, two crazy owners wanted me to vax dogs they couldn't touch! Nope. Several dogs with fleas. The nurse dropped a tiny puppy. Thankfully he seems fine.
So I shouldn't need my pump EVER again. YAY!!!
Bottles. Or the bottle as we only have one nipple. We used my sil's Advent. I know they're considered one of the two worst for BF. I see why. Way too wide. Virgil drank some water from it at home in the ergo. His latch is so shallow on it and he tends to tuck his upper lip. Please do not let him try that with me! It looked awful, I can't imagine that it wouldn't hurt. OTH the wider bottle didn't seem to be an issue for his grip so that was good.
It's funny after instructing J to make sure not to tip the bottle up (at the pool this week he started choking when a well meaning person tipped the water bottle up while he was drinking) V thought it was hilarious to tip it up. He's been doing that with me and of course it works, vacuum, duh. With his shot glass - it wasn't very full and somehow he got it to work. Maybe it just has to do with control?
Very sleep deprived. Time to start packing.
