OUT OF THE MOUTHS OF BABES

They say that we learn something new every day.

They also say that we are never too old to learn.

As living proof of this, let me share with you a piece of knowledge which I acquired only today. 

Since said knowledge concerns lactation, there is a strong chance that many female readers will already know this. So let me begin by asking the gentlemen.

When a Mum wants to stop breast-feeding and move over to the bottle, what is she advised to stick in her bra? 

Perhaps post-it notes saying 'no milk today thankyou'? 

Sticky tape to seal them up? 

No, the answer is cabbage leaves straight from the fridge. It's no joke I promise you. Cold cabbage leaves in the bra help to dry up unwanted milk.

This is clearly why cabbages are called BRAssica.
