Another emotional day in our house. Well for me anyway! Tonight around 11:45, Andrew will be consuming his last bottle of breastmilk. We made it 4.5 months past the 6 months I pumped for. I am so proud of this and it seems like such a huge accomplishment for me! Sure we had to buy an extra deep freeze for storage, expensive bags to freeze in, washed countless bottles but it was soooooo worth it! I can't believe that tomorrow he will be a formula fed baby. I feel joyed he made it this long but am sad it has come to an end. I have also made a big decision to stop tracking his milk intake. Ever since we brought him home we have been tracking in a binder. Time to put the binder away. I'm sick of it!
BEFORE - September 2010
Freezer #1 - FULL (except for a box of pancakes and 2 pizzas) I'm pretty sure there were like 300 of those little (annoying) bottles!
Freezer #2 - FULL
AFTER - February 2011 - 4.5 months later!
The last bag :o(
Added for your viewing pleasure. :o)
What an amazing thing you have done for Andrew! He looks like one happy little boy :)
