If you think embarrassment is driving the responses of a mother of a newborn, you've never been around one. Physically, they have no shame anymore, no modesty.

If you think embarrassment is driving the responses of a mother of a newborn, you've never been around one. Physically, they have no shame anymore, no modesty. Emotionally, they are 110% focused on their babies. Anything that feels like failing their child is a crushing blow. To not be able to feed your child... it's the most horrible feeling one can have.
