Hi all,

Just wanted to tell you about a "teaching aid" that I used for
breastfeeding class last night kinda by accident.

I always borrow a baby doll from my daughter to demonstrate
positioning at the breast in class, I let my daughter pick the doll
to share with me, last night she picked Baby Get Well.  When you
squeeze one of her wrists she laughs and say I love You and when you
squeeze the other wrist she coughs and says Dont Feel Well, so as I
was demonstrating breastfeeding positions, I made the doll laugh and
say I Love You and when I demonstrated with a real bottle of water
how easy the water flows from the bottle I made the baby cough and
say Dont feel well.  Needless to say, the whole class laughed and I
think the point hit home!  :)
