My mother in law got my husband and I a membership to Costco, and bought us formula from there yesterday. That was super awesome of her. It is expensive, and I wish Eddie still breastfed for that (and many other reasons) .
I was able to pay off one more medical bill today. We will be super tight until next week, but it was nice to be able to kiss it good-bye
My husband asked me if I was sad that he no longer nurses. I am, but I am not going to rip myself apart over it. Between the stress of the first few months of his life, Him being NPO (No products orally) and my inability to get a breast pump or a lactation consultant in a timely manner despite begging , because "Only NICU moms get lactation consults" while he was in the hospital, my milk dried up really fast.
Sometimes I wonder how different things would be if the doctors had listened to us in those weeks, and if we had gotten the help we had asked for. It does no good to dwell on it, at least, that is what I tell myself.
I hold out hopes that the 10th will bring us closer to answers. I lay awake at night worrying about money, about Eddie, and about pretty much everything, and how I am going to get everything done and taken care of before his appointment. It really doesn't help, but my brain just won't turn off.
