We were watching about an hour of the Olympics last night including some of
the skiing -- truly amazing.  But what really gets me all caught up in
breastfeeding is the speed skating.

Those long smooth glides as the skaters are going on the "straightaway" look
exactly like nutritive sucking....the little shorter ones on the curves or
when the skaters are getting going is exactly like the baby telling the
breast to get with the program and LET DOWN!

I think I need to get out more.
