I *love* midwives. Seara was always underweight (2% on the scale) and we couldn’t figure out what was wrong. My doctor suggested all these tests and medicines – UGH. I didn’t go for it. With Elijah I had a midwife. I told her about the problem. Her suggestion? Drink whole milk. It was pretty hard to get myself to do that, but guess what? Ever since then my babies have been in the 50% range! The milk I pumped for Sease would have a millimeter size layer of fat on the top. With the boys the fat layer was about 1/3 to 1/2 of the milk pumped. Yeah. Awesome. I love midwives.

Long shirts. The only way to solve the problem is with really long shirts. They can be hard to find when you are tall, but they work. Plus, I only wear my cute (read: uncomfortable) clothing when I’m going somewhere that I care. Otherwise, it’s comfort over cuteness for me!
