[blparent] Sensitive breast feeding concern, ladies only

[Tammy]

Hi,

My mom always says that a man must have created underwire bras lol  I never 
liked them either and I am not large chested.

Yes, and go to a maternity store if you can and have one of the ladies there
help you with sizing properly for a nursing bra.  This is so crucial for
comfort and it's great to get one bra for when you're pregnant and another
for when the baby comes because often times you're one cup size bigger then.
It's advised to avoid bras with underwires because this can cause clogged or
damaged milk ducts.  Having a big chest, I've always hated those suckers
anyways! SMILING

Thank goodness I'm not the only one who had difficulties with centering and
pumping. I figured it out eventually.

As for classes, Joe and I took a breast feeding class, a newborn care class
and a childbirth preparation class. They all were extremeley ehlpful and I
suggest to anyone to take advantage of any classes available.
