Milk

I took Ruby to her ST this past Tuesday and the ST said she wanted me to put thickener in Ruby's milk so she can start using a regular flow nipple instead of a slow flow.I know she's just trying to do what she thinks is best for Ruby but when I got home I cried because the therapist put that disgusting looking gel in my baby's milk(the milk I work so hard to pump for her everyday).I also think I cried because I thought Ruby was doing so wonderfully , she takes 6 to 8 oz. at each feeding,putting on weight,growing longer,stronger and she can roll from her tummy to her back now! The ST also made the mistake of telling me Ruby is her first infant with Ds,that they usually come to her when they are older.The ST is also very,very young.

My husband brought me flowers when he came home that evening because he was sorry I was upset.He's a sweety!
