I can see why that'd feel awkward, Gud, but I can also kind of understand why your wife would be surprised at the awkwardness. She clearly feels very comfortable in the discussion group, and it can be really really hard to imagine that anyone could feel uncomfortable in a setting where you feel at home. Even if you know intellectually that there are aspects of the setting that would make a certain person uncomfortable, it can be hard to believe that was feel safe and welcoming to you is not for everyone.
Hey, preaching to the choir. I thought our Lady of the Perpetual Sea Breeze was the real deal until the Divine Miss J walked right through that door and right into my ass—which is where my heart is…physiologically. I could show you an x-ray.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

She's starting the group and wants me to be a part of it so that other guys will see there is a male in the group. So I'm in there to support the starting of the group.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
AW, Gud. Glad she's not making ultimatums, but sorry about the anger.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear
The side feeding gets way easier as your milk production evens out. And I am totally with you on rather get out of bed than use the boppy in bed
It's not a production issue, it's a boob-to-head ratio issue. When she's bigger and has more neck control, we'll be able to do it without frustrating her and killing my neck and arm. Of course, if I had an additional arm, I could prop the baby and the boob and position the nipple for latch on, and all would be well.
I football hold when I need to, but the Boppy saves me from having to do it all the time.

Gud, I wish I had some suggestions for you. It seems like you're stuck between a rock and a hard place with this.

This?
Yeah, pretty much, but with more sitting and less running.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
It's not a production issue, it's a boob-to-head ratio issue.
Ah. Since I had the c-section, by the time I tried to side nurse, I was over that particular hump.

The image of this just delights me. Oh, and hey! I have stuff for you, and want to socialize. And, y'know, see Tickybox.
Gud, I wish I had any helpful advice. All I can offer is my good thoughts.
