Hello Bottle

Just a little feeding update to officially announce I'm working on weaning Charlie from the breast to the bottle.

We made it 7 1/2 months which is longer than I thought we'd make it. We had a rough start with Charlie living in the hospital for 5 weeks and me living at home pumping milk for him everyday. Science says breastfeeding reduces the chances of the baby getting ear infections, increases their IQ, reduces their chances of becoming obese later in life, reduces the mother's chances of getting breast or ovarian cancer, the list goes on...

If any of these things prove to be true then the 7 1/2 months of getting my breasts out in front of in-laws, friends, and strangers in places like Red Robin, on planes and in malls will have been worth it.
