It's getting better and better

I decided to go and buy a nipple shield to see if that would help Josh latch on better, and boy did it work. He does so much better with that and it has given me a lot more confidence in the whole nursing process. I did read that using one might make it harder for the baby to get enough milk, so I am not sure if that is going to be a problem. I will have to look more into it and see what I find out. My sister had to use one the whole time she nursed her first baby, so I don't think that it should be a problem to use it. I guess we will find out.
Tyler seems to be doing a little better. He slept a little better last night, he only woke up once, so that was good. I thought that I was going to go crazy with how he was acting, but now maybe I will keep my sanity, just maybe. Josh seems to be having some gas and constipation problems, so that hasn't been fun. I hope that with Josh nursing more that he will start feeling a little better.
We went to Tony's work today and showed off Josh and got some milk. It was nice to get out for a little bit. Maybe tomorrow we will go to Costco, good times.
