Breastfeeding....

Gee whiz!!! I did NOT know that breastfeeding was such a complicated thing. Last night Mommy went to a breastfeeding workshop (Poppa took the day off due to a prior engagement called the Lakers, and cause baby gave him the night off) There is SO much to know about this darn process, which of course is THE BEST thing for baby, so Im gonna do it but jimminey crickets, it's a tedious thing. The lactation consultant that gave the class was phenomenal, and luckily our hospital is very "pro-breastfeeding", so they have consultants on site for when the baby's here, in case Mommy has trouble, AND they even have a free support group every Thursday so Mommy can go learn what she's doing wrong. Isnt that great? Well Im really excited to have baby here in his first hour of life which is the best time to try nursing since he will be the most alert, and we'll see if Mommy's milk factory really works. The scary thing is the complications that can occur if baby doesnt get the hang of it, or mommy doesnt know what the heck she's doing. Lets hope everything goes well, the good thing is that mommy went to learn, she's trying real hard to do everything right, and the real test will be the day baby gets here.

This Thursday's our last Childbirth class! Yikes....these past couple months have flown by! We did our Parenting, Childbirth, and Breastfeeding classes, and now Poppa and Mommy are ready to do the hands on, the real deal, the BIG ENCHILADA!!!!

Here's a picture of my pretend baby, who had a little too much sun...
