It's peaking

So Atticus has been crying a lot lately and I can't figure out why but I'm pretty sure it's not the lactose intolerance anymore. So we're both drinking milk again. I think I'm about done breast feeding. He's not latching on very well anymore and it's just too tiring, I'm pretty sure I'm going crazy with this whole feeding routine anyway. And I would rather just feed him a bottle of formula then go through all this nonsense. It takes to long to get ready to leave anywhere and I'm exhausted. WIC tried to give me this supplementing tube thing that goes in his mouth while I'm breast feeding him so he gets formula the same time as I'm feeding him but it still doesn't matter he won't stay latched on even if there's a surplus of food going into his mouth. *sigh* I tried really hard to make it work. Oh well. Atticus likes the bottle more than my booby, ha ha.. It's alright. I'll get over it. Anyway pretty sure he's over 13 pounds now. Here's some picture of him almost 10 weeks old!

2 Months!

Atticus had his 2 month check up today and he's 12 pounds 14 ounces!! That's almost 13 pounds! He's getting so big. He also had his immunizations and he cried actual real tears! It was so sad. That was the first time I saw him with tears in his eyes. :) He smiles now and makes all sorts of funny noises!! And when I sing to him he tries to sing back. Well sort of.. He just makes lots of cooing noises. He is amazing and I love him so much. I can't wait until he starts to sit up on his own. We're supplementing him because the lactation clinic finally confirmed that I have a low breast milk supply about 2 weeks ago and they told me it was probably genetic. I'm so glad that someone actually told me it was okay to supplement him with formula. And it was nice to know that I had done everything I could to get my supply up and that it wasn't my fault that it never got up there. So feeding is kind of a process I'm not gonna lie. I breast feed him on both sides twice to make sure he's getting all he can and then I make him a bottle of formula and feed him as much as he'll take of that. And after he's all nice and full I have to pump to make sure that I'm still getting the same amount of stimulation as I would've gotten had I not formula fed him. Oh I forgot to mention Atticus is a little lactose intolerant so I'm eating and drinking soy products and he's taking soy formula to see if that helps his tummy. It's been kind of rough, especially the breast feeding and I wanted so badly to only breast feed. But what can ya do. Just so long as Atticus is happy I'm happy. Alex is doing so good with him when I'm gone at work at he's such a good Daddy. It's nice to get away to work but at the sane time I can't wait to come home to see both of them and give Atticus loves.
I love my little family!
