Hi Nicole!
I came to see how you'd been getting on. Been thinking about you actually and would have really wanted to be able to give you more support, but with a newborn here myself, who is having colic, I've not had much time to come online. I am so so so pleased to read your update and I really REALLY admire your persistance and patience! Wow :D Just told my DH about you and your DS, and will be telling others who are struggling in the beginning too as it's inspiring to hear of someone else who didn't give up and who had success. I am so happy for you and you have my full respect girl! ;) :D
How is it going now? Are still using the sheild? I hope it is still going well :-*

I know it's been such a long time since I posted this thread.  I just want to update for anyone who has gone through what I did. My son is 2.5 and STILL nursing!  I really credit some of the wonderful people here for their help and kindness.  With all the internet sources I read about latching, hearing from actual moms who have been there made all the difference and gave me hope. Thank you again.
