#colustrum

So.  My breasts have started leaking colustrum.  Gross.  The colustrum leakage then adheres itself to my bra.  Grosser.  I refuse to buy nipple pads or whatever because, well, I don't have a reason.  Lazy.  Yesterday, my nipples were like leaky faucets, or more like Old Faithful spewing grossness all over my bra.  Ick.

Last night I decided I was tired of this nonsense and was thinking of ways to absorb the fluid that was now draining from my nipples.  Ick Ick Ick.  I was thinking I could put some gauze in my bra, but then thought that maybe the gauze would fall out and wouldn't that look weird.  A pregnant lady with gauze jumping out of her bra all willie nillie.  Crazy.  I let my mind wander through the cabinets.  I could use band aids?  Nah, I don't want to adhere anything to my sore tatas.  So what else, what else, what else.  Then all of a sudden it came to me!  The proverbial light bulb over my head went off!  DING DING DING!  I'll use...wait for it, wait for it, waaaiiiit for it.  PANTY LINERS!  I'm a fucking genius I tell you.  A fucking genius!!!!!!!!!!

This morning, before I put on my bra, I unwrapped a panty liner, cut it in half, and placed the halves in each bra cup.  MM looked at me like I was absolutely insane, but I still think I'm a fucking genius.  Not just a genius, but a fucking genius.  My thinking is this:  the panty liners are made to absorb fluid, right?  And they have a sticky backing.  Therefore, if I cut them up so they will fit into my bra cup, then they will be able to absord the colustrum while sticking to the bra, so I don't have to worry about them falling out.  Problem solved! 

Man, I love when I have good ideas.
