he was born with a really high palate that made milk transfer almost impossible.

Now that he's a bit bigger, he can nurse better, but my supply is low and he is used to taking a bottle.

I'm thinking of renting a pump again and working at increasing the supply now that he's sucking better. But, honestly, I'm afraid of being terribly disappointed again. It's just so painful.

But, right now he's nursing like a champ. Maybe I'll just keep offering him the breast and go from there.

I just had dreams of child led weaning, nursing a toddler, etc. I just feel like such a failure. My pregnancy sucked. My labor sucked. Now this.
