In about 5 more hours Little Johnny will have gone 24 hours without any supplements. Meaning he will have had all his feedings by breast! That doesn't mean we're in the clear, but it means we're making a lot of progress! In fact about 2 hours ago I woke up and he wasn't ready to eat so I manually expressed about 1/2 an ounce into a bottle. We returned the rental pump this week. Anyways if he does have to take a bottle I'll try the 1/2 oz I expressed first and see if that will satisfy him that way we'll still be even and he won't be ahead of me. If one of us is going to be ahead of the other, I hope it's me ahead of him. However, if I get too far ahead of him, I hope we're able to rent the pump again. It would be kind of good to have some milk stored in the freezer for when we need to go somewhere that breastfeeding would be too inconvenient. Plus I have almost a whole package of storage bags left. :)
