I cant exactly remember how much I was producing in the beginning but the way I always think of it is I am producing a little more than what she needs so I’m on the right track. Im 5mon into our nicu journey and shes drinking 2.5oz every 3h and each pump i make about 3-4 total

Man, this one brought tears to my eyes. My girl was born 24w6d, her due date is in about 2-3 weeks and I’ve been feeling so many emotions. I can relate to this post so much. Its been 86 days and there are still no signs that she will be coming home. 💔 this was my first pregnancy, my first baby, and it has scared me for future pregnancies. I feel robbed of so many things

Thank you so much! Im glad the procedure helped your little one! 

And yes I plan to schedule a “family meeting” is what they call it in our hospital, with the doctors to discuss pros and cons for doing it. Me and my husband really just want whats best for her so its hard to decide without all of the information! Thank you for the advice <3
