OK, here's the more extended version of our doctors visit yesterday. I made a small post on FB this morning

Avocados have been the biggest topic of the day....;-) I've never actually purchased, handled, or eaten one. But Laurie was fabulous in explaining the ins and outs of the avocado world to me. Plus, she's got A LOT of italian recipes...;-) And I think I will try the bag of freezer veggies. That way I can just make it in little scotty-sized portions for his snacks and stuff. And definitely adding oil. We always use olive or grape seed oil and the doc said to keep right on doing that.....just MORE. It's just so weird to think in high-fat terms instead of "healthy food" terms.

Since my mom was a vegetarian for so long, you'd think I'd know all about the various fruits and veggies. But no. Much like the preacher's daughter always rebels, the vegetarian's daughter does as well.

I would totally pump and give it to him in a cup! Breastmilk is so freakin healthy that you can't go wrong. As long as you can tolerate pumping and you don't mind having your diet restrictions, I think it's a great idea. Now my aunt who is STILL nursing my four year old cousin....that's a little weird.

Hi Meghan

[lilredfireball]

Thank you so much!!! I just read the introduction that beachin sent me and I was going to add you tonight. I have literally been out ALL day stocking up on fatty foods, but I can't find a good cookbook to save my life. Alllllll kinds of diet cookbooks, allllll kinds of weight loss and calorie counting ones. But no full fat ones. Then I have people (like my brother) trying to lecture me about good fat vs. bad fat. They don't understand that we just need FAT. It's get this to work, or we have to start a feeding tube. I feel like no one understands....except you.....;-)
