Hi everyone!
Khyia Leeanne |
I'm sorry for the long delay with updates and new content, but I took some time to myself for a while due to pregnancy and birth. My daughter was born one week early, November 9th 2012, and caught phenomena and spent the better half of her first month in the
hospital on oxygen and feeding tubes, until she was
well again. During the time that she was in hospital I visited as
often as I could to feed and watch her.
She remained in hospital for 13 days fighting off the sickness, but after the 7 days of antibiotics, the pneumonia gone, she still wasn't coming off the oxygen and it worried me.
The doctors told me she just needs time, but to have a baby that can't breath without help is a very scary thing, and it crushed me to go home without her. So I made her a trinket with healing crystals, hung it in her bassinet to aid her lungs, and blessed it so she could ween off the machine that breathed for her. At home I preformed healing ritual after healing ritual, every night I had to sleep without her home.

Khyia came home from the hospital on November 22nd, 2012 a healthy baby!
During the last two months I have worried about milk production and dealt with reflux and colic. My night have been pretty sleepless but my baby is still healthy!
Now that I'm up and running again I wanted to update you on how everything has been going and share my experience, and how I was able to keep breast feeding regardless of her lengthy hospital stay.
When they told me she was gonna have to stay in the hospital my brain jumped to my first son's birth, I knew she would be in good hands, but I was unsure if I would be able to breast feed like I planned. My older son stayed in hospital for one week, and without a choice on how he would be feed, I was unable to feed by breast, because he wouldn't latch. With my first experience, each day that she remained in the hospital worried me on how well I was going to produce milk, as well as if she would even take the breast when she came home. Having my older two children also created a pickle during that time because it meant that I couldn't visit her as often as I wanted. I was forced to pump and take it to the hospital and breast feed her once a day when I came to visit her. There was a time where I thought I might not make enough milk and used a tea remedy to help my milk stick around for the long haul, and it worked like a charm. By the time my daughter came home I was producing way more than she was drinking. Which in the end, resulted in much left over milk to freeze while my body regulated the milk production process from a pump, to the baby's feedings. With persistence I was able to keep her on the breast and now don't have to worry if latching will be an issue.
For the mommies who worry about making enough milk for there babies, using this product will help you bring in and maintain healthy lactation so you and your baby can enjoy feeding times together!
Mother's milk doesn't pose a risk to your baby, because it is designed to produce milk, so taking the tea several times a day won't cause any harm.
Our family is complete and baby is well. I am getting back into school and enjoying the fun things about being a mommy! I hope these last few month shave been good to everyone and I hope you are all enjoying a blessed new year!
