Got Milk Numero 2

Ok once again...this is a post dedicated to that of breast feeding and my wondrous milk makers, so if you really don't care about hearing my updates on all things milk, this is a post you can skip!;)

Lily will be 6 months in 2 weeks and my boobs are still just as full as they were when she was 2 weeks! Everyone told me that the milk would die down a little as she got older. Well its just not happening! Every morning I wake up with can-elopes for boobs. I start nursing Lily and this is what happens!...see pic bellow. (imagine it milk though)

.

This is not an exaggeration and for those of you who have seen this phenomenon

(Jen and Aubrey) you know I'm not lying! 

And while Lily is nursing, she finds it very funny to stop in the middle and let herself get

showered with milk. She just laughs. I really think she does it on purpose just to torment me!

Even after she nurses, they are still full so sometimes I just have to go pump to get

the excess out. And usually I can pump 5 ounces on just one side.

 

Then usually within an hour I can feel that numbing sensation and I know that the shower has

started again! I don't know what I would do without nursing pads! They are my life savor.  

Lily doesn't like bottles and I realized its because she hates having to suck. She is so used to milk just pouring into her mouth. So I took a bottle and literally stabbed holes all over the nipple so that the milk would flow out faster and it totally did the trick!

(I forgot to mention that a lot of times I pump milk before I actually feed her so that its not such a rush, but even when I do that, it still sprays, just not as much.)

 

I swear my body was meant for twins. Feeding them would be a synch!

 

 

This is me to a T!:)

 

 So maybe my body cant produce an egg each month, but it sure knows how to produce milk!



 

 

If only they worked together as a team!!!;)

 

Well, that's all I have to say about that! HOpe you enjoyed the illustrations!!!
