a nose enema

So it's been a while since I blogged.  I've been busy being a lazy pregnant wife :) just ask Travis.  Our son, Miles David was born on Sept 8th.  I'll now try to blog more regularly (cause I have a TON of free time, hahaha).  Motherhood has been like everything else in my life, a fun ride.  Hope you enjoy. 

Last night I was watching Criminal Minds, did you know there was an all day marathon?  YUP, it was on until 2 AM!  Anyways, I was nursing Miles and was watching the TV more than baby cause it was late and I was in a trance....  

I kept feeling something dripping on my arm but figured it was sweat because we'd been sweaty all day when we nursed... I looked down and there were steady drops of milk coming out of Miles' nose.  I didn't move positions, he wasn't complaining, I didn't really understand what was happening and how he wasn't drowning....   I did stop and change positions after a few seconds when I realized what was going on. 

Apparently, I found the perfect nursing position that is the same position required for the successful use of a Neti Pot to flush your nose.  I always feel like I'm drowning when I use the Neti Pot.  Of course I gave my baby's nose an enema. 

Now off to eat dinner while the swing is keeping Miles sedated.
