Alex has gained two ounces since Thursday. So the new program of supplementing each feeding with expressed breast milk really works, even if it does mean that I occasionally feel the urge to moo.
patgreene used to do this early-on with James (who is now 14 and 5'10"...). She'd also use a pump to express milk at her law firm... she stored it in their breakroom refrigerator, which was OK until some other associates used it in coffee. Er.
I do have to admit, it would weird me out to be thinking "this was produced by my co-worker's body", and so, yes, I understand the point. But part of me is fighting down the urge to say something like "EWWW! Everyone knows PEOPLE aren't supposed to drink *THAT*!" and go on a riff about how it's only natural to drink milk that comes from a completely different species.
Actually, even funnier than that was the partner who thought that the weird buzzing noise in the ladies room (the only real place I could pump) was someone using a vibrator.
