Mama Thoughts

Things your mom would never think to tell you:

1. Breastfeeding is hard, and it hurts, at first. Even when you're doing it correctly. (More about this in another post.)
2. Breastfeeding can be really messy.
3. Babies often smile with only half their face; this doesn't mean they are neurologically damaged.
4. Babies occasionally spit up through their nose, mouth, and basically any available body orifice. They'll survive it.
5. Baby poop comes in a variety of colors.
