Weirdest thing you've done while BFing?

NothingLikeBarbie · July 2011

Last night I breastfed while playing a whole game of Jenga. Stick out tongue

What is the weirdest thing you have done while breastfeeding?

Okay, not BF, but pumping:

-talked to the ER doctor (who was VERY uncomfortable) about K's reflux- it had been 6 hours! I couldn't wait a minute longer!

-closed our living rooms blinds, while.....the wierdo that lives next door drove by, backed up, rolled down his window, and then drove off when he realized I had quickly hidden behind the curtain!

I don't do much while breastfeeding. I use it as an excuse to sit on the couch while DH does the dishes and brings me water

Folded laundry, played Sumoku (kind of like scrabble but with numbers) with DH and MIL, ate breakfast at a restaurant, sat on the side of a highway- he;s a hungry boy!

Put away the groceries, Will had a meltdown on the way home from Wal-Mart and needed to be fed RIGHT THEN, but it was hot and I had lots of frozen stuff, so I did what I had to do!

Not that these are at all weird, but I've done a lot of multi-tasking while BFing:

Eaten meals (restaurant and at home), bumped, read, watched tv, made shopping lists, phone calls, in-person conversations, fed the pets, let the dog out, folded laundry, cut my nails (and his), gone to the bathroom (I'm SO not proud of this, but I had to pee and he was screaming and I hate hearing him scream), he nursed when we took showers together (he hated the bath when he was brand new, so I brought him into the shower), slept.

I think that might be it, at least that's all I can think of.

Eat dinner at the table with my family?

gone to the bathroom

I've done this. I try to pee before I sit down to feed her. But when you gotta go, you gotta go!

These aren't weird to me, but some people might find it weird.

BF while sitting at an outdoor restaurant on a lake surrounded by strangers. (DH said he was a little embarrassed)

BF while sitting next to my SIL who was BFing my nephew. Neither of us were covered. The room was filled with my sisters and her sisters. It was great to be in such a supportive environment.

This for me, too! DH never refuses a request while I'm nursing!

On a long car ride home, I leaned over her car seat to nurse her. I wasn't stopping the trip and she needed to eat!

Played cards with FI and my parents, gone to the bathroom...it couldn't wait.

I have done all this as well, except for the nail cutting, as I just bite his. I do bite them while nursing though, it is when he is the most calm.

I will say the craziest thing I have done BF-wise is breastfeeding while walking through the middle of Wal-mart, with only a newborn prefold CD to cover us. Maybe I should look on the peopleofwalmart website to see if my picture is there!

That must have been the most uncomfortable awkward task ever! I would like to see how the heck you did this?!

lnelson20 · July 2011

I have done housework (vacuuming, sweeping, dishes, etc.); decorated my son's 1st birthday cake; waited in line for Alexis's birth certificate; ate dinner; sat on a conference call for work, etc. Lex eats all of the time

My sister's friend was doing this and a cop pulled up beside them. He realized what she was doing, shook his head and drove away.

Stood at the counter at my eye doctor's and paid for my appointment.

That is too funny!! Probably the only situation in which I would be thankful someone was uncomfortable around me nursing!
