Thoughts on that ravenous hunger...

Since this blog is supposed to be about nursing, among other things, I wont apologize that this post is about that. :)

For some reason this morning I was remembering that ravenous, all consuming HUNGER I felt (and still occasionally feel) the first 6 months or so, but especially right after I had Emerald. My body was making enough milk to completely satisfy that little human being. That's pretty amazing. There were times when all of a sudden, I'd get so incredibly hungry that I had to eat something, anything or else I'd probably faint. LOL

I remember my friends Matt and Jess coming by after Emerald was born to meet her and bring me a meal. I think it was Matt that had made me a whole batch of Snickerdoodle cookies and told me that I had permission to eat as many of them as I wanted because I was nursing. Believe me, I did just that. :) That was so fun and sweet of them. I need to be sure I return the favor, although I doubt my cookies will turn out as delicious as theirs were.
