Late Night Slapstick

By Ellen Stukel

I was nursing my 6-week-old baby in bed when I heard a slapping noise. I opened my eyes to see my sleeping husband slapping his own face in irritation. In my sleepy stupor, it took a minute to discover the source of his irritation. My other breast, which had made its way out of a nursing opening in my PJ's, was shooting breastmilk onto his face, a distance of about 2 feet! After we laughed about it, he reminded me to keep something available to catch my leakage.

Ellen Stukel, of Illinois, is mom to Mark, 6, Tom, 4 and Meghan, 7 weeks.
