Demonstration
Leta was approximately 12 hours old when I took this photo of Jon wearing a nursing pillow. It looks pretty good on him.

Priceless! I still have a photo of mine wearing the empathy belt, another keeper.

But did you get a photo of him with cabbage in his bra?

That looks like it would be a pretty useful contraption for wearing after a few drinks, if you have a tendancy (as I do) for inexplicably falling over after the 3rd glass!

One of the breast photos ever of him.

Love the "hospital bed" perspective.

Looks like he's doing a pantamime or performing one of my all-time favorite dances: The Robot.

It's really hard to go all day without speaking to adults! Everything gets kind of- I don't know - bottled up.
Besides, I've got you beat. I filled MY dog's water dish like, six times! And walked him a few to boot. This always impresses the breadwinner on his way in the door, let me tell you.

That's hilarious. =)

OK, I that thing looks like some sort of padded hula hoop. I have only seen the Boppy version.
Your Jon is such a good sport!

I thought it was some kind of drum at first. Guess I need my morning caffeine!

Hubba hubba, Heather, your honey is hot hot hot!

It looks like he's got some Moveable Type-birthing hair going. Nice.

More with the drooling and licking of the monitor.
Thank you.

That's hilarious! It reminds me of the time my husband and I had a very strange conversation about men breastfeeding their babies. I had been told that it happens, that some men actually "learn" to breastfeed, and as one peruses the internet there certainly is some opinion on it out there. David was certain that it was impossible, but aparently it is, but only sort-of and only for some men. (The questions about milk quality and quantity from men, for exapmle, have never been researched.)
So I won the argument about whether it was possible, but ended up looking a little goofy about it. I for one will not be encouraging David to lactate when the time comes.
And now I'm a gross, weird commenter.

I work as a full time "father" at a boarding school and 10 middle school girls live with me (and my beautiful wife). I'm quite certain the conversations you have with Leta are more mentally stimulating than my daily chit chats.
I hate my life.
I'm thinking of starting my own blog in hopes of getting dooced.
Thanks for providing some refuge.

He is totally working the whole nursing pillow thing, that look works for him :)
10.13.04 - 05:55 AM / 22Shauny said:
You know, from that angle, he looks kinda like John Corbett when he was Chris The DJ in Northern Exposure. It's all in the glasses, the forehead, the expression. What a hornbag! :)

Looks like the "My Breast Friend" (worst name ever, BTW) is meant to hold up the breasts not the baby! Clearly, post-birth confusion/euphoria going on...

Oh Lord, I hated that nursing pillow...

It's Blurb v1.0, the Lactation Training Droid! They make 'em hot-looking so the mom will pay better attention.

And it makes a handy floatation device...

I thought it was a portable high chair table at first until I read the caption. Obviously I don't have any kids...

Shit, your husband is hot.
When my older son was an infant, my husband was holding him while not wearing a shirt and Sam tried to nurse on him. My husband told him, "Son, here's a life lesson. Don't suck the hairy titty." I think we can all agree with that.
