Finally sums it up

It feels like I haven't posted in forever! Mainly, because I haven't been taking a lot of pictures and I know people would rather see Isaac than read what I'm writing. I tried to upload some video last night but our computer was going crazy.

But I do want to post this clip that I found from this website I found. It is pretty interesting. I found it thru this lady who was on Oprah who has her own blog and makes over 40k a month...yes a month...from just blogging!

I've never really spoken a lot on how I felt when Isaac was first born and how hard it was for me not to be able to breastfeed him. It was the worst 2 months of my life. I felt like such a failure and the lactation consultants, seeing friends doing it, guilt that I put on myself didn't help, guilt from reading articles that said--formula is evil and breast is best...whatever! Well, I found this site and this topic came up and the ladies in the short clip summed it all up on how I feel. I feel society puts pressure on women to breastfeed. I'm sure it is better for the baby and you but what about the women who can't. Maybe I guess I could've been as confident as the women in the clip.

Anyway, off my soapbox and I promise the next blog entry and future ones will return to all about Isaac!
