As my husband has previously stated 'we are new parents'. Our son is three months and two weeks old. It is one of the best things that we have ever done but also one of the hardest. Man, breast feeding is so hard. Waking up in the morning to breasts that look like mountains. This should sound great (like a natural boob job) especially when you started off with nothing at all but trust me it's not sexy. What is sexy about leaking milk? Not only that, it hurts. Isn't it bad enough that woman have to go through child birth which for me felt like I was dying (that is what I imagine dying to feel like).
I've talk to many new mothers and some love breast feeding. Are they kidding themselves? What is there to love about leaking and aching breast and cracked nipples. Egg, please understand when I start yelling at you to stop hugging me.... it's not pleasant. Yeah I know it suppose to be fantastic for my son. Suppose to give him a higher IQ and great for his health but when do I stop? When he becomes Einstein? I don't know but for now all I know while sitting here with leeking, aching breast that look like mountains is that my son is going to be the next Albert Einstein that can play tennis like Federer.
Ciao, Bananas

Ok, so it's 8:10am in the US and I come across this blog and obviously this was way to early for this story.
Since I have a mother dog at my house that is nursing her pups I guess I can understand what she is going thru?
it will get better...
