Or, well, Macy does.
We did the 4 month well visit today. He asked me what my plans were on food and such since it's ok to start food by 4 months. I told him I was going to wait until her tounge thrust went away in order to start food. He told me that was fine but wanted me to start vitamin d drops since she is completely breastfed.
So, after 3 shots and a trip over to wal-mart I checked out the price of these so called vitamin d drops. $8.00!! I know that doesnt seem like a lot to most but when you are BROKE, $8.00 is just enough gas to get me to and from work for one day!
OH and let me tell you this, the office knows Im an exclusively breastfed mother so what do they hand me as I leave the office? A welcome packet for Enfamil with vitamin drops. Ok, well, thanks for the free formula that is going to go to waste and the free drops that I dont have to pay for now. :)
I figure Ill just drink lots of vitamin d milk till she's ready for food. My boobie milk is better for her then any artificial boob juice.
On another note, Macy got approved for medicade so she and Brooke are going with me to apply for WIC on Tuesday. Im so damn excited to finally get some help! Hopefully we can save our home now too. Which I will write another entry on sometime in the future once we know what is going on.
Have a great Wednesday!
