After a brief interlude, we're back with....Breastfeeding!

It’s been a while. I’m someone who loves to have grand ideas and follow these grand ideas with the intensity of a freight train for several weeks until I, if you’ll excuse the analogy, run out of steam. See former projects such as Jews for Run, this blog, etc. 

I probably would have gone another week without posting on this blog, if it hadn’t been for something amazing happening reminding me how much the things I look up are needed. You might rightfully asked, what happened that was so inspiring? I received a request. So simple, someone needed me to look up something on her behalf. So now, I take requests. Actually, I take that back. I only take requests, if I happen to think that the question is valid and that I can write an appropriately somewhat-witty blog answering the question.

This week J. and J. (it was a request from two people! Both are named J.) emailed me to ask an interesting and funny question. They wrote:

Might be inappropriate, but I had to honor my employee’s request. She would like to know if you can breastfeed if you are pregnant.  It has clearly been a busy day.

Well, J. and J., I looked this up. Turns out you can breastfeed while pregnant. Although it sounds exhausting to me to have the life literally sucked out of you from two different places at once, I guess it’s a personal choice. I don’t judge.

See what the Baby Center (they have to be experts, right?) has to say on the matter here.

I was going to include a picture, but I couldn't find anything that was remotely appropriate or not creepy (again, in my humble opinion- I don't judge, but think of all the other people who have had their mouths on those things.)
