Okay, I got one last thing I need to vent about. My nipples are screaming for their lives again. Night feedings are bad because I'm tired and we are both wearing a ton of clothes, which all makes latching on properly more difficult. Tristan doesn't make it easy either when he only opens a small mouth. Plus I'm so uncomfortable. Feeding in bed with pillows is uncomfortable. Feeding in the chair with the foot stool is uncomfortable. It's so cold and I had another itch attack from my eczema and cold hives. My arms are starting to look bloody from all my scratching - it's gross but it feels so gooood to scratch.

Another rough night
Man, just when I thought we were progressing and then another sleepless night. Tristan was completely passed out for most of the evening, which I thought was a bad sign. When it was time to sleep, he was wide awake of course. He woke up every 1-2 hours to feed last night and did not go to sleep after each feeding either. I was pooped! With all the feeding and rocking him to sleep, I didn't get to snooze much. He kept spitting up milk too, which is probably why he became hungry more often. I did what I could to avoid spits. I moved slowly, held him upright for a bit and made sure he drank slowly.
