- Well, I got the supplementer last Wednesday. It is a big help. I can tell
- that my milk is coming back slowly. The breast is still not Joseph's first
- choice. When he first wakes up and is very hungry, he just refuses to take
- the breast even with the supplementer. And I have learned the hard way that
- trying to "force" him to take it does no good at all! So what I end up doing
- is giving him about two ounces from the bottle and then gently giving him
- the breast. He will still fuss sometimes, but other times he has nursed
- quite happily for a long time. I am very pleased with the way things are
- working out. Thanks again for all the support and help.
