 But sexy?  Ha!

Yet another reason to put my almost two yo in the sling and go shopping,
close on my house, talk to my dryer repair dude, change my  name in
court.... and nurse all at the same time.  Sex never enters my mind at those
times, just getting my work done, getting my daughter fed and happy, and
showing Americans how it's done.  It's not sexy to have a nursing toddler
unlatch and wipe her nose on my shirt collar and then get down and run away.
Hide in the bathroom?  No way!  Who has time for that?  And would I dare
expose that much skin to a nursing toddler by wearing a negligee?  Not
unless I wanted every square centimeter of it explored by little hands.

are guinea pigs in the biggest human nutritional field experiment ever
conducted.- Arly Helm
