Of course, I would like to *think* my breastmilk is "exceptional." :D Dawn, I don’t know if my milk is just exceptional or something, but I have plenty of stains on my bras and shirts to prove that it indeed leaves a yellowish mark that has to be bleached out.

In fact, I found one I liked so much at a little shop in Asheville, NC, that I bought two more online, so now I'm set. It's pink cotton, very practical, but I like it! I also bought a "sexy" leopard bra, but the flaps don't fold down right and it's kind of awkward to use. I bought another lacy white one, too, but when it's been a while since a feeding, the snaps pop open. One thing... I've heard that breastmilk (and any resulting spit up) doesn't stain the way formula does. Is that true? Of course, nursing pads are great because you don't want spots on your clothes, but, in my experience, the milks washes out. (Or have I just been lucky?)
