Let's have some fun! Share some laughs, victories, commiseration, etc.
You know you're breastfeeding/pumping when....
I'll go first- You know you're breastfeeding a toddler when you have to stop your child from trying to sneak a goldfish cracker into her mouth while she's nursing!

I'll go first- You know you're breastfeeding a toddler when you have to stop your child from trying to sneak a goldfish cracker into her mouth while she's nursing! Yes with the crackers. No, no child, you have a water bottle to wash down the crumbs. You know you're breastfeeding when other breastfed babies headbutt your chest. Yes there's milk, nope not yours. I assist at library storytime and have been BF since 2013...this has happened many times. |

loony glad I'm not the only one! I remember going to visit my BFF in the hospital when she had her son, and I held him for about 2 seconds before he started rooting and fussing because he smelled my milk!

...you can't hold your toddler without him sticking his hand down your shirt and holding onto your boob
...you've lost all modesty about your breasts and whip them out whenever is necessary
...you're constantly jiggling your boobs to compare which has more milk in it

You look down to find your shirt lifted halfway up and your nursing bra still unclipped. And you fed the baby at least an hour ago.

You evaluate all clothing based on how easy it is to take your boobs out.

+1 to frequent boob jiggles (funny too because while I was pregnant, I would jiggle/poke them to see if they were sore).
You know you're pumping when you manage your work calendar based on your pump schedule and access to the Mother's Room.
You know you're breastfeeding when you have no qualms about discussing latches and holds with other moms in front of their husbands.

Interesting because my boobs never feel full or different so the jiggle wouldn't work for me!
+1 to nursing wardrobe. It's been almost two years since I wore a non-nursing bra and I would feel naked without a nursing tank.
