I just had a big glass of wine

And omg, it was heaven.  I swear I can feel it in my fingers and toes.  And after a rough day (dudes - two under two is for real no joke...) I feel like the stress, the anxiety, the doubt - it all melted away.  I missed my wine.

Now I'm gonna go bake up a batch of good ole lactation cookies.  Joy of joys.  :-P

Re: I just had a big glass of wine

  • Mmmmm so jealous! (of the wine, I have no idea what the lactation cookies are....) Glad you got a little relaxation momma!

  • It's Liquid Sunshine Yes!  The wine, that is... I'm also confused (and slightly scared) by/of the cookies ;)!

  • I just stuck the first two batches of cookies in the oven - I had to send J out to get more eggs - I didn't realize we only had one left.  Ack!

    The ingredients in the cookies (the oatmeal, the brewer's yeast, and the flax seed meal) help you to make more breast milk.  I noticed a significant increase when I ate them while I was nursing Gabby.  So, time to make some more and freeze a bunch.  They're pretty tasty, too.

    Okay, those sound pretty good. I was thinking that they were some tasteless cardboard things that helped your milk supply Big Smile

    Wow, seriously me too!

    I didn't know that you could eat something to produce more milk.  Very nice!

  • Mmmm Wine! Just one glass after so many months of being pg and bfing is serious therapy!!

     Be careful with Fenugreek ladies. It is a medicinal and smelling like maple syrup means you have taken too much! I know, it works, but sometimes at a price!
