We agreed it was too bad, and I said something about it not being as healthy as bf. He looked very confused, and it came out that he, all that time (his whole life until that moment), had assumed bottles contained expressed breastmilk!! (I worked p/t after his little brother was born, and left him & dad with ebm.) My 9 yr old nephew has actually tried to lift my shirt for me if I seem to be taking too long, LOL. "hurry up! can't you see he needs to nurse?" Hopefully these boys will remember.... ~ Suzanne, mama to Peter 11/2/89, Andrew 1/16/94, and Samuel 6/5/98 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "It is not a slight thing when they, who are so fresh from God, love us."
