LOL Well I am going to break out the ice packs. That will be quicker! Gotta figure out how I am going to explain that to the NINE pre teen boys I have around here all week

Now that Andy mentions it, I have had that "twinge" before when around other newborns - that confusing reaction to a crying baby that my BODY knows how to comfort. THANK GODNESS I AM NOT LEAKING -- if FEELS like I could but obviously I am not producing any milk. OH MY!!! I dont even want to GO there!!!!

I guess because this is a much longer exposure than just hanging out with a baby and when she is here I am "mothering" her my body goes into overdrive. Crazy thing is, I did not enjoy breastfeeding when I did it - its not like its tied to a plethora of happy memories but apparently my body thinks thats what its supposed to do.

Thinking I will trade it in for a less responsive model
