unexpected tidbits

Things I never anticipated

• A job description of lactation consultant actually exists


• Talking with a lactation consultant so I can find out how to help


• Everyone in the world has a thought on breastfeeding and pacifiers, and like snowflakes, no two are alike


• A newborn's suction ability exceeds the power of any air compression tool at Home Depot


• To get a newborn into a onesie, it would have been good to practice with an 8-legged baby outfit and a large, ornery octupus - while sleep deprived, of course


• New parents really do get excited about the contents and frequency of dirty diapers


• When you have a child, even ahead of schedule, every baby marketing company in the world is aware of it, and they have unlimited postage budgets
