"you  have to spend money to wash the clothes that the baby spit up on

~~~ This has nothing to do with the topic of Liz's post, but it did remind  
me:
recently I've taken to wearing those tank tops that are very slim, but  
supportive, under whatever shirt or dress I am wearing. (They are supposed to  
make one look thinner or firmer or something but I just buy at least a few 
sizes  bigger, since I'd rather be comfortable and supported vs. compressed 
and  smushed.) This came in very handy recently when a baby I suspected has 
some  digestive issues, was kind enough to squirm, fuss, and then spit up 
massively  all over me while mom was pumping and I was showing her how she 
could watch him  for cues about what he was showing us ( again very nice of him 
to give such a  clear demonstration...:). I was soaked in formula ( milk 
supply issues  on mom's side) from the throat to the crotch. It was nice to be 
able to ask mom  if I could just take off my dress ( having now just a tank 
top and pants) and  she gave me a bag to put it in. Rinsing with water did 
not  move this stuff  and the smell was awful, and I had to ride on the 
subway to get home. It worked  out much better for everyone I think to have that 
option. :)
 
Peace,
Judy
