Lactation 101 from Abigail



video


She came up with the name "milk buttons" on her own I swear! One day when I was still pregnant Abigail was taking a shower with me and was naming all her body parts, she named her belly button and then pointed to her nipples and asked "whats this name mama?" This to me was a perfect teachable moment and so we talked for a while about how those were her nipples and I talked to her about how her baby sister would drink milk from my breasts and how she drank milk from them and blah, blah, blah. She then pointed to all her buttons and said, "belly button, milk button, milk button" and the name has stuck ever since.
