    How often would you get the DMER thing? Also, I’ve heard nursing described as feeling like “peeing through one’s nipple” …is that accurate? Also, apart from sex drive, how long did it take for your body to get back to normal after birth?

      Every time but only for a little while. Like the worst drug rush ever. Then it was just gone. And no, not like peeing, it’s secretion not excretion, I didn’t feel the milk coming out as much as the baby latching on. It did squirt right out though, it’s pretty funny and also magical and awesome, free food for the baby is an incredible design.

          At first they do get full and hard, first couple of times the real milk comes in, but then adapt, and in my experience just make milk on demand when the baby nurses. My now grown kids say I am not empathetic about ladies who have issues nursing because it just seemed natural and not something I or any of my babies had to learn, it just happened. Have the baby, put 'em on the boob, that’s it.
