Drawing blood ...

for the first time in my bf-ing/ bm expressing, i bled.

i had this plugged duct for weeks and i was trying to suction out the blockage with a syringe (no needles) and then suddenly, i am looking at a red-fluid filled syringe.

needless to say, i freaked out. i do have a slight phobia of blood. thankfully as i cleaned up, no more bleeding and i continued pumping - no pink milk for my kiddos ;P
