Quotes on milk- December 20, 2010
Overheard in our house recently…
Me as I was getting the breast pump: “The dairy is open for business!”
Greyson after feeding Charlotte for the first time (a few weeks ago): “It went really well. You’re right Amy. My nipples are really sore!”
Me as I was watching an episode of 19 Kids and Counting when Michelle Dugger was sorting an entire freezer of frozen breast milk: “I feel woefully inadequate.”
Spread it around:
HILARIOUS!!! It was great to meet you yesterday.
After having kids I found a new respect for dairy cattle! I despise this pumping business. But I do what I gotta do. I love Fridays when I can hang up the pump for a few days!!
my daughter likes to sit up and nurse now… very awkward and it make me feel like a drinking fountain
so freaking funny!
Don't feel inadequate re: Michelle Duggar. You too can have your very own freezer full of breastmilk. I had to pump exclusively at about 2 weeks because Will was such a frequent nurser and so aggressive that I couldn't handle the pain anymore (and I thought contractions to be a mere nuissance). You just start pumping every two hours for 15 minutes. The girls will quickly send production into overdrive. I did start nursing again after maybe 3-4 days hiatus, and when it was all said and done, I'd pump 16 oz twice a day totalling 32 oz a day AND nurse on demand. My freezer (and bra cups) ranneth over.
I want to wish you a Merry Christmas in advance
