A local mom was complimented for breastfeeding at the YMCA.
OK, as you can guess I did the complimenting.
My son and I had finished his toddler swim class and before leaving I had to
detour to the mens room. Leaving him with my wife I passed a row of tables/
benches going down a hallway and noticed from behind a mom who was
discreetly breasfeeding her baby.
On the way back I stopped at a candy machine and looked toward the mom who
was now burping the baby. Catching mom's eye I said, "Looks like one
contented baby". Mom thanked me and I asked if she was nursing her to which
mom said yes. I told her as I passed I could tell b/c I'm a pediatrician.
I'm pediatrician filing my face with Mike and Ike's. They're my vice in life
so I avoid candy machines. They're not made by you know who are they?
