I was pumping today and Ethan was inconsolably crying. I stopped the pump and offered him my breast (he hasn't latched without screaming since the hospital, so I've been exclusively pumping.) He latched! Then of course, since I was empty he started crying (plus he was crying because of gas not hunger). So a little later he was hungry, and I offered him my breast. He ate 7-8 minutes on each side. He's nursed a couple time since then. I'm sooo excited! I'm not going to be offering the bottle anymore unless he refuses the breast and see if we can make this work!

That's so good! The bonding time is great while nursing! :)
