Wow. That's one hell of a birth story. I'm so glad he's here and you have an 'outside baby'. How's it going these first few days home?
My parents left at 3:00 yesterday, so we have kept him alive for over 24 hours by ourselves. Latch is not good, so I am pumping a lot. I still hope we can breast feed.
Well this is always a good thing
Do you plan on seeing a LC if latch doesn't improve? Do they have someone they could send over to your house so you don't have to get bundled up and go out if you don't have to?
Pumping is good - I'm really impressed you're keeping up with it. K's latch wasn't good either (more like never really happened), and I half-assedly pumped but definitely not enough.

Oh wow- you are a rock star! I hope you keep that 6.5 hours of pushing in your back pocket for those angsty teenage years to guilt him into cleaning his room and shit, you deserve it.
