just an update

Just got home from hospital today. My son is now 4 days old.he is such a good baby.  I am both formula and breastfeeding but honestly the formula was a force becuz I wasnt producing milk. My milk finally came in so hes breastfeeding every 2-3 hrs..10 min on each breast (for wondering moms) he latches good. I pump in between so yes my boobs and nipples hurt but ladies dont give up. Its gets easier. I also use warm compress they sell at walmart to put around ur breasts. It helps with soreness and helps milk come in.. I use nipple cream each feeding too.... still sore and hurt from my c section- sitting up at night for feedings is a small challenge but I am able to walk around and I showered alone since day 1 of my c section but I was doin too much my incision started bleeding in the hospital so ladies-TAKE IT EASY. my baby doesnt cry at all unless hes hungry. So far so good ;-) im open to any questions!
