Lactation Lingo


So, last night I had a nightmare that we brought the baby home and after we got home, I realized that the nurse forgot to show me how to breastfeed the baby. I was in a panic. I was yelling at the hubs to google it!

So, this morning, I started reading this book, Breastfeeding Sucks, that my lovely friend, Linz, bought for me. I was hoping that this book would ease my fears about breastfeeding, but with words like: clogged ducts, spewing from your breasts, nipple cream, nursing bras (like I mentioned before, Hannah Montana training bras are the closest thing to a bra that I wear...), saggy boobs, latch on, nipple shields, I'm thinking--ignorance is bliss?? Good thing I still have 7 months to get used to all this lactation lingo! Okay, time to read the chapter, "Booby Traps, aka Nursing Bras"... Help?
