I snorted at this one… and then laughed harder and harder as I read my way through the comments!

Jane, I had the same experience you did. I was nursing my third, and yes, after you’re used to nursing a 2-year-old, your boobs are going to get a workout. Big deal. They came in and made a stink about it and I said, “Then get me some Lansinoh!” Turns out I had nursed longer than the lactation consultant… *sigh*

Literally lol.

Huh. You know that glorious day when you take off your newborn’s diaper, and there’s the stump of the umbilical cord, after breaking down and detaching? I have the same visual now of taking my bra off and finding two nipples rolling around in it…

My other irreverent thought is…I wonder if that nurse uses that line on her husband? “Honey, you’re making love too much…”

I can see that now: “yes, I’d like to check my nipples into this facility for treatment. No, not ME! My nipples! You see, they’re having a bit of a breakdown.”

Let’s use it in a sentence.

“My boobs had a nipple breakdown when they realized the stock market crashed”

Doesn’t make any sense now does it. Better get those nips a therapist or they are gonna end up in a mental hospital. LOL

I burst out laughing at this one.

I’ve been breastfeeding at least one of my two children every day for almost six years. I have yet to get nipple breakdown.

“Is that like ‘break it down’? Oh, oh, will they do the Hammer Dance?!”

a nurse tried this on me during my last hospital birth. That baby nursed about 90% of the first day, but he was my third nurser and my other two babies had nursed two and three years. So things were about as good as they were going to get.

The nurse came in about 12 hours after the baby was born and said, “You’re going to get sore nipples doing that!”

I snapped back, “I am not!” and she slunk out of the room. I’m such a troublemaker. >;-)
