Spoilt Milk

When it comes to nourishing your baby, everyone knows that "breast is best". But what do you do when your mammary glands turn out to be a pair of Milk Duds?




(*No actual babies, boxers, or breasts were harmed in the making of this episode.)

  3. This is pretty much what happened to me only I gave up the pump much earlier. It is amazing the hoops we feel we have to jump through just to feel like we are good mothers.

    1. I feel/felt your pain, A.M.

      And yes, it is absurd how parenthood has become a competitive quest for some strange notion of perfection that's always changing. The only way I know to respond is to laugh at it.

  5. I am laughing and crying at the same time. As much as I would never wish another mother to go through what I went through, it's very freeing to know I am not alone. My formula feed and breast milk supplemented twins are a healthy 5 years old now as well.
