Reading Jonathan's post reminded me of a recent conversation with a 16 year old
new mom on the maternity floor:
"Hi, I'm the LC, and am here to help moms who want to bf - are you
interested in bf your baby?"
"Oh, I would have liked to, but my breasts aren't right..."
"What makes you think your breasts aren't right?"
"They don't look like the Playtex nipple - they're kind of soft and
flat."
AAAAGH!!!! (No I did not yell in the room!)
Luckily baby had not seen the playtex nipple and thought mom's breasts were
*just fine*.
