Day 3

Have been pumping like crazy. Although it isn't always possible to stick to the 2 hourly schedule, I made up for it by pumping one hourly when my daughter was sleeping. By night my nipples were hurting and I admit I didn't really have strength to pump at night. I pumped only once and only on one side at about 3 a.m. but then went back to sleep. Regretted that decision in the morning and have decided to pump more today.

There still isn't even a drop to show for all the domperidone, fenugreek and shatavari I am consuming. But I have read that it takes as much time to relactate as you haven't been feeding. So I am giving myself two months to relactate. Even if I don't, I'll still try till six months. Then I know I have tried and it didn't work.

For now, Sayalee is still screaming at the breast. I guess the SNS tubing is really bothersome for her too.

Will try to comfort feed next time without the SNS.
