If only it was Lisa Rinna of the ‘90s! I was a kid when she was in Days of Our Lives - I thought she was beautiful.

OMG no. If you don’t win, then I call foul. I’m in SEA and I am just going through the list of the different countries that this happened. Feng shui? Malaysia?

Aaaah, this is scaring me! #2 is due in three weeks’ time, but I am walking 13k steps a day at least working on a festival. I need this bub to stay in until his due date!

Thank you for sharing your story here! My first bub, now 14mo, used to nurse around the clock, every 1.5h-2h all day, everyday for at least the first six months of his life. It was hellish, but having to nurse that frequently meant that it took me really fast to be comfortable to nurse him in public. No one had said

Thank you, and bless you!

Because breastfeeding is only for nutrition? It goes well beyond that.

It is known that human babies naturally wean from anywhere at 2.5 years of age at minimum to about 7 years of age at maximum. There are many benefits apart from nutrition to nurse a child until both child and mum are ready to stop.

Yes. I almost hated my baby for needing to nurse every 1.5-2h through the day x like, 6 months. But how the mothers dress shouldn’t even matter. I live in the tropics, and pull down my tank top to nurse. Baby’s burp cloth over my exposed chesticle is just an invitation to my boob monster to pull away and play with.

Twiddling! It makes me uncomfortable, so I always keep the non-nursing side covered and hold my bub’s hand or give him a toy to keep his hands busy. But apparently twiddling is supposedly helpful in creating letdowns, so maybe there is a biological function to this action.

Men correcting the latch? Unless they are Dr. Jack Newman, I’ll shoot breastmilk in their stupid faces.

I love the La Leche League. The LLL leaders are often sympathetic people who do their best to support mothers and babies, and trying to appease people like David Whitley. Their internal dialogue while dealing with such twits must be hilarious.

Maybe mama feels uncomfortable too, but what to do? She’s gotta nurse your baby.

Nordic Naturals has a rep for being good grade!

They are not brothers? Did you mistake Suits for Royal Pains?

Hachi, I’m a Southeast Asian of Malay extract who still lives in SEA. All my American in-laws know is that I’m Asian. I no longer bother explaining the distinctions anymore.
