As a nursing mother, I have an ever-growing baby to prove that I'm constantly working, but Franny's growth isn't inherently satisfying. Maybe my problems in valuing motherhood are my very own, but I'll argue with anyone until dawn about how strange it is to nurse, even though local it is one of the most natural things in the world. The same is said local of sex, and how many people can report a fulfilling first experience in the sack? Just as no one could have described sex to me before I had it -- or could have talked me out of the curiosity that led to my average but unique experience of it -- I never could have envisioned what it was like to be a parent, no matter how many kids I babysat or books I read. Nor did I know what I meant when I said I was committed to breast-feeding. I didn't consider the stigma or even the simple practicalities of the experience, but I was religiously devoted to the idea for the baby's health. Throughout my life I've had eczema that ranges from irksome to aching.
