“NIP”... someone frequents parenting boards ;-)

I actually write a lot about breastfeeding for a mom website, and I try to balance out the fact that I do really like the fact that people are finally discussing that nursing can be challenging or awful while being very honest about my very good experiences. I feel like the more variety we have in these kinds of…

I NEED THIS IN MY LIFE!

HA! Yeah, my mother-in-law’s dog had puppies once, and she joked that she couldn’t let me see what those pups did to their poor mother’s poor, poor teats.

“That sounds like a You Problem, not a Me Problem.”

Yes! Last time I went to the Bx Zoo I saw a mama gorilla nursing her baby. I wanted a picture of me nursing my daughter in front of her, but there wasn’t enough room to do so (also it would have been a dick move to take that viewing space for a picture on a crowded day).

I lucked out in this regard. Between two children I’ve breastfed for 36 months now (son was 17 months, daughter 19 months and counting... Sidebar, holy FUCK that’s a long time when I think about it).

And to whom can I send my designs to manifest them? Because otherwise this is just teasing me...

Haaaa! Ashamed I didn't think of that, though he was so earnest even if I had I probably wouldn't have said it...

My son has watched Empire every day for a month. The other day the scene where they put Han in hibernation came up. He curled up on my lap and said dolefully “Mommy, if you were ever frozen in carbonite I would be so sad.”

My son has watched Empire Strikes Back every day for a month, which prompted me to remark to my husband “Damn Harrison Ford was so fucking good looking.”

You know a couple things about this... ;-)

Ah! How US-centric of me! Whoops! Sorry about that.
