Breastfeeding Class

We went to a class on breastfeeding offered by our hospital yesterday. It was a very good class, we learned alot. There were 5 other couples all on their first babies, and they were as clueless as we were! The nurse who taught the course was a board certified lactation consultant who works with the hospital. She was great at getting the information across and answering questions. We even got to watch a "how-to" video involving babies nursing off of the largest breasts the nurse had ever seen. Quite informative. Brandon was just happy there were other guys there!

Awwww, that brings back memories! I bet you guys watched the same video we did. I remember how uncomfortable Ryan was. I'll never forget the lactation consultant repeating to us. "just squish it like a hamburger and shove it in the babies' mouth"
