Da!
Yes I am learning Russian.
Now working with a Russian lady with a beautiful baby boy who looks tanned but unfortunately is a little jaundiced and sleepy at the breast.
It is a challenge but I am determined to get him to feed before I leave.
We will see.
Sunshine all week, lovely!
Have been working with two families at the same time this week, exhausting in this heat but worth it.
The first family were Dutch and after struggling to get the baby onto the breast in the beginning with time and lots of patience from the Mother she is now feeding brilliantly and putting on weight.
She may still have to go through some tests so at least she is getting the best start.

straight forward

Have just finished a very nice week working with a family from Slovakia.
Everything went well.
The baby fed well and gained weight.
The family was very hospitable and fed me every day!
Today I worked but enjoyed a nice Mothers day in the evening with my girls.
On to the next family........
