I'd explain to anyone, related or not, if they wanted to
know how something worked (in age-appropriate terms, of

breastfeeding or pumping works is shocking to me.

I think perhaps this is the moment for someone to produce the picture of a
women somewhere, think it was the carribean, nursing next to some diplomat
or something and just pop her boob out the top of her clothes and nurse her

the better we'll do!

(wasn't necessary at lunch of b'fast), I popped out my boob and nursed
