  • i think it's ok to drink and nurse (0 / 0)

    i never pumped and dumped

    i didn't drink at all when i was pregnant, though

    it was explained to me that drinking while you're pregnant is so bad because the baby shares your bloodstream while you're pregnant

    if you drink, there's much less alcohol in your breastmilk vs in your blood

    about weaning-

    when i weaned my lst one i put oversized band aids on my nipples and said they were broken

    once i forgot we were weaning and i reflexively let helen try to nurse and she saw the bandaid and reminded my boobies were broken.

    • The bandaids... (0 / 0)

      on the broken boobs. So funny!

      Yes, to my chagrin, Eli still wants the boob. But so far, I've been able to distract her with cheese puffs and the bottle. She likes to be a big girl and hold it.
