3 month update and venting included (long)
She struck up conversation, and
asked if I had gone back to work at the hospital yet (I'm a nurses aid),
and I told her that I'd put my nursing career (I plan on going back to
school in the future to become an LPN) on hold while I stay home to bf DD.
She asked why, and I told her that "wet nurses are relatively hard to find
these days" and she snorted and said "well, you could always switch to
formula and bottle feed her, its so much easier than bf"
Of course what she said was daft, but it is perfectly possible to
continue nursing your infant and toddler while working out of the home :-)
Oh and BF didn't hurt for me ever. It doesn't hurt for everyone :-)
