23 hilariously accurate breastfeeding memes
Whether you’re pregnant, just weaned your baby or are smack-dab in the middle of a cluster-feeding day, a good breastfeeding meme is something any nursing mom can appreciate. The reason? They always nail that breastfeeding life.
From the joy that is leaking in public to the quiet rage we may feel when looking at our sleeping partners during a 4 a.m. nursing session, here are 23 breastfeeding memes that speak to our soul.
1. At least it’s a cute view.
As Milky Makers points out, in the beginning, this is pretty much all nursing moms see. Hey, at least it’s a ridiculously adorable view!
2. Getting ready to feast.
When Kate (a.k.a. katastrophicpan) spotted a photo of Post Malone seeing a fan flashing him, they turned it into a breastfeeding mom meme. And might we say, they nailed it!
3. The perfect before and after.
When mommy blogger Mandy the Momma captured the ̶0;before̶1; of her hangry baby and the ̶0;after̶1; of her happy baby, she nailed it! In this little cutie’s defense, though, who isn’t like this when they’re hungry?!
4. When your baby suddenly hears a noise.
Every mom of an easily distracted baby knows: The milk goes everywhere, especially your baby’s cheek! Thanks, Mom Hashtags, for the laugh.
5. No milk in the hospital? You just wait…
Oh, you were worried you wouldn’t have any milk when you were in the hospital? You just wait until you get home and feel relaxed. It’s a milk-fest! Sleeppumpmeme gets it.
6. Here, dad, you feed the baby.
If you work. If you try to sleep. If you try to leave the house when you’re nursing — you get it. Thanks, Milky Mama, for keeping it real. And, um, thanks dads?
7. Us, when asked to leave the house.
Kourtney Kardashian may have posted this pumping photo after a night out, but Instagrammer pettycrime69 showed the flip side of pumping — it̵7;s the perfect excuse to get out of plans. “Me, when asked to leave the house,” they wrote. Sorry not sorry, guys!
8. Oh, this? This isn’t sweat.
That awkward moment when somebody thinks you’re sweating. A lot. From your boobs. Like Cuterus said, it’s milk. We make milk.
9. Oh, the irony!
In a cruel twist of fate, when your baby is the one up all night drinking, it’s you who feels hungover the next day when you’re nursing. Thanks for validating us, For Mae Collective.
10. ‘E’ for effort.
As Instagrammer CoppedgeTwins points out in this breastfeeding in public meme, all the people in the world can offer to soothe your baby. But when you’re the one nursing, there’s one thing and one thing only that will quiet your little one immediately.
11. How many ounces?
When the pediatrician asks you how many ounces baby is taking in at each feeding? Um, like, breastfeedingart on the ̵6;gram says: Idk, a boobfull? Who knows when you’re nursing?!
12. Oh, how wrong you were!
An undeniable benefit of breastfeeding is all the money you save on formula. But no one ever factors in all the weird online shopping that gets done at 3 a.m. while nursing. It’s kind of like drunk dialing. Only it’s shopping while nursing.
13. You got it, kiddo.
That moment your baby realizes that crying magically summons the boobs. We think a new word needs to be coined for this. How about: BamBOOBzled.
14. NOW, MOM!
Alright, we’re going to be honest here, this baby might be screaming for a boob, but OH MY GOD HOW CUTE?!?! No one could ever say no to this adorable babe!
15. Duuuuuude̷0;
We’ve got news for you, kiddo. It’s boobs tonight. Boobs tomorrow night. And boobs for breakfast and lunch.
16. Can someone direct us to this section?
Victoria’s Secret has an “L” section, right? Our kids want to know.
17. Seriously, guys, just stop already!
All of the pumping rooms everywhere we go. The ridiculously long maternity leave. The super affordable child care. Guys, stop helping already. It’s embarrassing!
18. How do I look?
Do we look OK? How’s our hair? Because this is how we feel this morning. Just saying.
19. The look of death
Who knew it was possible to feel such love and rage all at once? Really, it’s an amazing thing.
20. Isn’t this fun?
Is breastfeeding a beautiful experience? Overall, yes. But, also: This.
21. The magic elixir.
Ask any nursing mom and she’ll tell you: Breastfeeding basically solves everything. Except exhaustion. It definitely does not solve exhaustion.
22. If you’ve been scratched while nursing, you know.
Want to know when a breastfeeding mom realizes it’s time to cut her baby’s nails? When the baby breaks skin while nursing.
23. So, this breastfeeding mom walks into a bar̷0;
Ba-dum-ching! Listen, guys, we’re exhausted from nursing. They can’t all be winners.
