Well- not literally. No boobie pics on this blog. Not yet...
Mina is a very funny nurser. She has 3 settings- Playful, Hungry, and Starving.
If I catch her in a playful nursing mood she will look at me out of the corner of her eye and smile. She does not eat much when she is in that mood.
Hungry nursing is the most vocal of the feedings. With every swallow, she vocalizes a little "mmm" sound, just to let me know she likes what mamma is making.
Starving is probably the most frustrating for her. It happens when she wakes from a dead sleep. Usually, it has been a couple of hours since she fed and her body is desperate for food. This is when she screams at me. This is also when she attaches to my breast so hard that I can feel the suction all the way through to my back. Often she gets SO INVOLVED in nursing when she is "starved" that she forgets to breathe, or she nuzzles her nose into my breast and cannot breathe through her nose... She then whips her head back, gasping for air. After a few quick breaths, she realizes she is still S-T-A-R-V-I-N-G and latches on with wild voracity; only to choke, sputter, and forget to breathe once again.
This morning after one such "starving" session, she completely exhausted herself with and nuzzled her face firmly between my breasts. (Mind you, I was laying on my side, the early morning feedings we do in bed) When I attempted to remove her face from my cleavage, she got very upset. Apparently, one boobie for a pillow combined with one boobie to weigh her cheeks down makes a happy Mina. I considered taking a picture to embarrass her when she is a teen... Maybe if it happens again.
