Even though I started this blog when Adam was born I did not share the address on either facebook or the boards I frequent. Why not? Shyness over showing my boobs is not the reason. The biggest reason is I have a lot of friends and acquaintances and relations who either aren't parents or did not breast feed and I did not want them to think I was weird or bragging or whatever.
So, why did I decide to share my blog? I'm not sure, maybe it was the first few pages I've read so far of Beyond the Sling by Mayim Bialik, who in my head I refer to as Amy Farrah Fowler, from the Big Bang Theory.
Maybe it's because I think my children have benefited greatly from being breastfed. Maybe it's to share my experience, or at least the cute pictures of my last baby.
I don't know, maybe it's just because people need to get over boobs, you either have them or you like them or both, they are boobs, nothing to be afraid of.
Anyway, so I'm reading the book and enjoying (so far) reading the parenting thoughts of a like-minded mom. Often times I've thought of writing some tips myself for the breastfeeding mom. I've had two articles published in New Beginnings, the magazine of the La Leche League.
Well, I've completely lost my train of thought, Adam is asleep on the couch and I have brushed and flossed and am ready for bed and getting antsy because I haven't held him in about 20 minutes.
This is the cover to the book I'm reading, though I'm reading it on my husband's kindle.
