Small victories, big sigh of relief!

   It's interesting what can make me do a little victory jig these days. I get excited about things I never knew would even matter to me.

  Today I'm jumping up and down because we have officially -dare I jinx myself and say it?- conquered the battle of the bottle!!!! 

 This victory has me dreaming of real date nights with the hubby, occasional shopping trips on the weekend, coffee dates with friends, stress free Dr. visits (for me), and maybe a trip to the masseuse perhaps? ;)

 But most important -drum roll please!!!- We can actually make it to church without worrying about him screaming out of hunger! 

  I'm not one of those woman who feels comfortable with nursing in public. I just don't like it. And it seems even more awkward in church. I've seen other woman do it in the sanctuary (covered of course) so I guess there's nothing wrong with it, it's just my personal preference not to. 

 We have struggled for the past four months with getting his schedule just right so he's eaten before going. Sometimes it worked out, other times not so much. 

 After a lot of prayer and going through at least 4 different bottles we can finally breathe a sigh  of relief. 

 I feel so free!

His promise is true, my God will come through Always :)




* For any bf Mama's who are also struggling with this, the bottle that finally did the trick is the Mimijumi bottle. It's a little pricey, at $15 (for some reason Amazon is selling it at $30 today?), but if it's only for the occasional outing one should be enough :) Yes it's sort of an awkward shape..it looks just like a boob. But hey, it works :)
