Fricking COOl, I'm totally encapsulating with this baby!! I bled like a stuck pig for what seems like forever, I was in SUPER UBER pain, and boob milk, I made enough, but no MAJOR surplus.

I love everything aboot this!

Though I must add that having a major surplus comes with its own unique set of challenges. I wake up drowning in breastmilk in the middle of the night. I have to sleep with bath towels and they get absolutely saturated. I have yet to find any nursing pads that I can't leak through. I have squirted Danica in the eye on accident more times than I can remember. She chokes on the output from Fire Hose Booby (that's the left one) on a regular basis. I get painfully engorged if I skip even a single nursing. I've already had a mastitis scare, complete with fever & chills, but was able to sleep it off ( ... )

Have you considered donating the excess?

Did they tell you that you couldn't?
That's BS.

Yeah, I think I probably wouldn't have had it in me to put up a fight by that point either. And maybe they count on that.
But dammit, it's my body part, I grew it, give it back to me!
If Sheila hadn't been on the ball, my placenta probably would have wound up in the trash. Like I said, they were halfway down the hall with it when she chased them down. It wasn't even on my mind at the time. I was a LITTLE preoccupied with the newborn on my chest.
