Exclusive BF is so awesome
So far in the Bug's 4 and a half months on Earth, aside from mum milk
she's had nothing but a few doses of tylenol and mylicon, and perhaps a bit of bathwater here and there. Last night as she was nursing off to sleep I looked at her and realized that every molecule of this little human being -- every fiber of her muscles, every brain cell, all 10 fingers and all 10 toes (and even her little boogers) -- comes from me. Everything but the DNA from her dad came either from my bloodstream while I was pregnant or from the milk she's had since she was born. Isn't that just mindblowing? I'll miss that when we start her on solids.

I remember when I was nursing Laszlo exclusively and my DH would make fun of how much I would be eating. I said, "take a look at that boy, every ounce on him came from stuff going into this mouth, so lay off!" He was more making fun of the amount I could pack away (a pound of roast beef in one sitting) than my waistline - so it wasn't a nasty thing, more of a comment of astonishment! I can't wait for that feeling again. It is the best! |

It is "mindblowing". I know I felt very proud of this very same thing while
Lucy was exclusively bf. Leann "Akuvikate" wrote in message ...

I give dh credit for the big mean toddlers - er - I mean those spunky, independent, learning a mile a minute cute souls, Lol . -- Nikki Mama to Hunter (4) and Luke (2) |

I've had the same thought, though in fairness part of the oxygen in a baby's
molecules comes from respiration, not eating, so there's some tiny percentage of a baby's total mass that came from breathing. -Joy "Akuvikate" wrote...

I felt the same, and that's why I was sad when we started other food. She's
no longer 100% me, minus half a cell from her Dad : ) I felt very nostalgic as I "exclusively" fed her for the last time. Her Dad teased me that she polluted after she had her first solid meal : ) "Akuvikate" wrote in message ...
