Might as well call it "whitejack"
That breastfeeding class last night was interesting. Very informative, as usual, although I'm starting to feel a trifle overwhelmed with baby information right now. I fear I'm going to get confused and start trying to stimulate his neural development by putting breast milk directly into his diapers using the cross-cuddle technique. So much to remember, and my brain just isn't what it used to be. We also had to watch another video. Nooooo! This one was a very up-close demonstration of a British woman trying to get her newborn to latch on for the first time. Is it a bad sign that it made me a little nauseous?
Unfortunately, I didn't get to watch any of my shows from last night yet, although J did DVR them for me. So that's what I'll do tonight: try to replace the memories in my head of that woman's huge areola with the hilarity of The Office and 30 Rock. Escapist entertainment, I have never appreciated you more.

I think you're really going to enjoy The Office. I hope this strike ends, and we get to see more!
I read a little preview of the plot, and it sounded like it was going to be hilarious. I can't wait! This writer's strike is such a pain.
The Office was awesome... maybe one of my favorites. All the scenes with Michael make you laugh and make your chest hurt for him!
I think I had to watch the same video. You will get over all the fears and overwhelming. I'm certainly no hippie type, but I'm glad that I am bf-ing and I stuck with it this long so far.
I really like all the health benefits of breastfeeding, and I'm hoping it goes at least fairly smoothly. I know it's going to be hard when I go back to work, but I know plenty of women make it work. I just need to stop watching the videos. I would much rather just hear the lecture than see real details. I like being in the dark about certain things.
Bf'ing isn't easy at first, you both have to learn what to do, but hang in there, you will get it! Get some lanolin now! :) I bf'd for a year and it was so worth it. I pumped at work for about 8 months and that wasn't easy, you just have to schedule the time to do it...but, again very worth it. Did your sisters bf?
