Damp patch

By mommy - 17/11/2010 12:09 - United Kingdom

Today, it was my first day back to work since having my first baby. To show I'd caught up on everything, I had to give a presentation at the end of the day to the heads of my department. It went really well until the end, when one of them pointed out that breast milk had been leaking through my clothes the entire time. FML

That's not your fault. At least you presented well.

That's pretty embarrassing, even though it's not your fault.

Actually, aside from the whole leakage issue, what surprised me the most about your story is that you've just returned from 16 weeks of maternity leave... (or at least that's the standard over here, dunno about the UK) And your bosses expect you to be so caught up on everything that happened at your office over the past *sixteen weeks* by the end of your first day back, that you have to give a full presentation on it? FYL just for that, OP. :P

Red cabbage leaves and menthol rub with camphor in it. Dries up your milk faster than anything :)

you can't control it.. it's embaressing but isn't your fault! you'll learn ways around it- maybe wear those padding things or something- and bring a spare shirt?

Hey don't feel embarrassed. You just had a baby lactating is a natural thing for a woman.

Curious as to why they happened to feel the need to point that out. But still, congrats on the new baby!
