DS2 was six months old on Monday, after a rocky start (5 weeks prem, 3lbs 5ozs due to IUGR). He spent his first three weeks in SCBU.
It was hard work to get feeding started, but luckily he got the hang of it and he's still EBF.
Hope I don't sound smug, I'm just pleased that one bloody thing worked out the way I'd hoped. And also, wanted it on record for anyone who has a prem baby and hopes to bf.
Now trying to get my head round weaning a baby the size of a 3mo, and introducing the odd bottle of formula so I can get some sleep while DH does the night shift...
