Does anyone else have any cringe-worthy breastfeeding stories to share?
My most embarrassing with Maya was when I opened the door to a courier and then realised that I hadn't put my boob away 
But that pales in comparison to what happened with lil miss a few weeks ago. We were sitting in the front row at church and she started fussing for a feed. I tried to distract her but she was trying to climb under my shirt and assume "the position". So I tried to feed her as discreetly as possible, she latched on, the priest was giving his sermon, all was going well then all of a sudden she popped her head up (leaving me well exposed) and said very clearly - BOOBY! The people around us giggled nervously, and I wanted to curl up under my seat and die - needless to say the meet and greet with the priest afterwards was rather awkward! -------------  Maya Grace (28/02/03)

Sitting in one of the stalls in a Parents room at the local shopping mall feeding new baby... then someone walks up and whips the curtain open... jees lady, dont ya think theres a REASON the curtain was pulled closed!?!? Unfortunately feeding using the football hold technique doesnt do much for discreetness... so she got a good gawk at me hanging out there ------------- Brandon - 05/12/2003

At a (childless male) friends house with my DP, the phone rings and it's the lady of the house (my best friend) wanting to talk to me - I'm mid feed so just get up and reach for the phone with baby attached, BUT she decides at that moment to let go and smile at all the men, leaving me with 4 seperate streams of milk shooting from my boob in a rising arc showering the carpet, the couch, the baby and myself. Needless to say, all the men are in hysterics, E is smiling away and refusing to latch on because she wants to laugh too. I'm bright red and giggling at how ridiculous I look. My friend is on the phone asking what's so funny, now tell me how do you tell somebody you just covered the couch in breast milk??? Needless to say, everytime I'm at the farm these days I get handed a towel. And the men refuse to speak of that moment when they realised boobs are not always sexy. ------------- http://www.babysfirstsite.com">
