Strike Over?

So it seems that Zack’s little nursing strike may be over. Today he nursed a total of 4 times, though the 2 during the day were about 5 minutes each. I noticed, though, his 4th upper tooth is coming in. The poor kid…will he get a break from teething?

With all this nursing talk, I thought I’d share with you the interesting spots I’ve had to whip out the ole boob. These places are in addition to the typical places: family and friends houses, all of the rooms in my house, etc. But here are a few that I didn’t think would be an issue:

Doctor’s office – you have to hand it to my doctor’s office…you make an appointment and you not only wait 2 hours in the waiting room, but you have to wait another hour in the exam room. This happened twice.

Waiting room at Zack’s doctor – in front of a dad, 2 moms, a young girl and a teenaged boy. Luckily the blanket I brought with me was large enough to cover.

On top of Mt. Rubidoux in Riverside – yep…we made the hike and then I had to feed the boy. This blanket was not quite big enough, but he wasn’t pulling at it yet.

Restaurants – oh yeah, take your pick. I think it’s 3 restaurants now. Yes, at the table.

Car – if not at the table, I’ve been in the parking lot. Well, the parking lot of lots of places: Cal Poly Pomona, Claim Jumper, countless others.

Mazada Dealership Conference Room – If you ever bought a car, you know it takes FOREVER…even if you have the price worked out beforehand (ah, Internet salesmen). Naturally, Zack got hungry. The only place that was semi-private – their conference room. So I go up there only to find out that the owner of the dealership’s office is up there, too…and he has a window that looks into the conference room. I felt sort of bad, but he left his office for a few minutes while Zack got his nourishment. Oh yeah, and he pulls the blanket now, so it wasn’t like I can just cover up easily. Oh, and they didn’t have their air conditioning on up there, either, so I couldn’t keep Zack covered for long.

I’ve got a few months still left of this nursing thing. We’ll see if I’ve got anymore to add to this list.
