002 - Baby-Feeding Challenges with a 35 Week Preemie, Milk Protein Intolerance, Weaning Tips, and the Importance of Local Support with Carla Barnes

Hi Molly,In today's episode, I interviewed a very dear friend and fellow mama, Carla Barnes. She and I met way back, during our freshman year in College. We lived in the same dorm. Being first-time moms together now is so exciting, especially since we’re older mamas.Today, Carla opens up about the placental abruption she had at 34 weeks. She shares how she spent almost a week in the hospital before giving birth to her determined little girl, Ariana, at 35 weeks. And why it was so important that they hit the 35-week mark! We Also Hear: What it was Like to Try to Feed a NICU Baby Breastfeeding and Pumping Challenges when Ariana came home Ariana's Milk Protein Intolerance and the Emotional Turmoil Carla Felt at the Subsequent Early Weaning it Caused (as would any mom!)
