Well, it's been an interesting two weeks.  I ran out of frankincense a couple weeks ago and haven't been able to order until a couple of days ago.  I've been taking other oils hoping to maintain my progress and keep the levels low until my frankincense gets here.  I went to the lab the other day and requested some blood work to see what my levels have been doing while weaning and w/out frankincense.  Maybe weaning will help keep them lower anyway!  We will see!  I have not felt like my milk is out of control which is huge considering I was out of frank and cutting down nursing!  I pray that is a good sign.  I think the results should come in the mail at the beginning of next week.  I'm crossing my fingers.  If all goes well, I will step up a notch w/ the weaning and Tux will be nursing 50% and taking a bottle 50% of the time.  My goal is to be done nursing by the end of June.  I'm hoping my body will be able to accept that pace and that I will be able to dry up the natural way....I bet my specialists would say that is impossible for me too!  So, wish me luck in proving them wrong!!!!
And, just for the fun of it...here is a picture of me and my babe snuggling :)  Man I love this kid!!!

  1. I am glad to read that it's going well. I worry about this for myself someday. How often have you had to see your doctor during nursing? My doctor said he wouldn't see me at all if I became pregnant--that there would be no reason. That didn't make alot of sense to me, so I was just wondering what your experience was.
