I got to help...

another nursing mama yesterday. As I've posted before, I've been giving the husband and wife team who clean for me lots of boobie related stuff and translated-into-Portugese info for their new baby. Yesterday, the husband (wife is still out with baby, for which I am glad) asks me for help because his wife is thinking of supplementing because the baby (4weeks old) is eating every 2 hours, and she is worried her milk is no good. I explained how often normal babies eat, and how supply and demand nursing works, how formula hurts baby's tummy, and translated and printed some kellymom stuff about that for him to take to her. I hope it helps. I think it's hilarious that they see me as a nursing role-model, but I guess it makes sense, I'm always nursing Elliot when they are here! Yay for getting the opportunity for boobie service! -Kristin
