Progress

We're happy to report that Alaina has turned an important corner. For the past three days, she has been nursing exclusively. This has been a tremendous relief for Maris as feedings have been shortened from 75 to 25 minutes and are now spaced about two to four hours, depending on the time of day. Tremendous. As hard as it was, I'm glad that Maris stuck with it through all the difficulties the past five weeks to get to this point. As the two of them settle into their routine, I expect that feedings will become longer and less frequent and it will get easier to sleep through the night.
