psocopteraI have also learned some things:
1:1 If you put cabbage leaves in your bra, when you open up your bra again later to pull them out, it will smell like cabbage.
1:2 What with leaking milk, you're halfway to a coleslaw.
1:3 But adding carrots and mustard seed would not help anything.
1:4 Speaking of mustard, when they said baby poop was "mustardy", I was picturing something like brown mustard. No, they apparently mean bright yellow-orange fake ballpark mustard. Dang.
1:5 It's really hard to tell where the line is between being paranoid and properly concerned. For example, , the little scabby bits on the ends of my nipples aren't really a problem for me, and they definitely don't seem to be a problem for Juniper, but after reading a zillion things about Your Latch, Oh God, Your Latch, You Are Totally Doing Something Wrong Even If A Lactation Consultant Said You Were Great, I can't stop worrying that I am Doing Something Wrong and they are a precursor of the dreaded Cracked and Bleeding Nipples (the breastfeeding advice has a lot about Cracked and Bleeding Nipples and not anything I can find about Tiny Flat Totally Non-Bleeding Scabs). I just feel like pain or a baby who didn't seem to be satisfied by feeding would be a less ambiguous concern - I mean, maybe they just tend to scab a little at first? How would I know?
