Asked by AmbassadorScorpion4301
lara is 17 years old and is visiting her half-brother Dylan and mom. Izzy currently lives with her aunt. Iara gave birth to Destiny 3 months ago, born 3 days after her due time and has been breastfeeding exclusively. Iara reports Destiny’s dad is involved “at times” but they are not together. Iara left Destiny with her dad for the day and noted when she picked her up, the diaper is dirty and reports Destiny is crying more, but consolable. Additionally, Iara notes her left breast has been painful with nursing at times. No previous medical concerns for Iara or Destiny.
