“Suess” for Nursing Mothers Mother’s milk is just the thing! Would you nurse her at the park? Would you nurse him in the dark? Would you nurse him with a Boppy? And when your boobs are feeling floppy? I would nurse him in the park, I would nurse her in the dark. I’d nurse with or without a Boppy. Floppy boobs will never stop me. Can you nurse with your seat belt on? Can you nurse from dusk till dawn? Though she may pinch me, bite me, pull, I will nurse her ‘till she’s full! Can you nurse and make some soup? Can you nurse and feed the group? It makes her healthy strong and smart, Mommy’s milk is the best start! Would you nurse him at the game? Would you nurse her in the rain? In front of those who dare to complain? I would nurse him at the game. I would nurse her in the rain. As for those who protest lactation, I have a perfect explanation. Mommy milk is tailor made It’s perfect food, you need no aid. Some may scoff and some may wriggle, Avert their eyes or even giggle. To those who can... See less

As a new first-time mom, I've spent countless hours with my baby "attached" to me. So much so, that we started calling myself "The Breastaurant" because I felt (and looked) like an all-you-can-eat 24/7 diner. Creativity ignited during my terminal state of sleep-deprivation and I got the funny idea to create a 'Breastaurant' logo for my baby to wear. During several breastfeeding sessions, I designed "The Breastaurant" logo and slapped it on a baby tee. It was an instant hit with friends and strangers alike! I began getting requests for tees and soon I found my post-pardom self at the screenprinters ordering more tees. It has been fun watching people smile after reading the shirt and I love the fact that it has some of my formula-feeder friends thinking about breastfeeding their next baby! Close-up of "The Breastaurant" shirt logo design: UPDATE: Send a pic of your baby in "The Breastaurant" tee or onesie and we might add your photo to the website (think baby celebrity!) See less

Although most mothers and babies can breastfeed without special assistance, sometimes occasional help is needed. Premature babies, failure-to-thrive babies, and babies with specific impairments, such as neurological challenges, may require extra attention. Infants with severe feeding problems can also benefit from specialized feeding products. Keeping baby at the breast helps preserve the mother-baby bond that only breastfeeding can create. The products described here are designed to help you overcome circumstances that might otherwise impede a successful breastfeeding experience. If you need breastfeeding assistance from a lactation professional, call our Breastfeeding National Network at 1 800-TELL YOU, or ask Medela's Lactation Consultant, or contact La Leche League International at http://www.lalecheleague.org.

Jared Diamond, a Pulitzer Prize-winning author and Professor of Geography at the University of California, Los Angeles, wrote about male lactation in his 1997 book Why is Sex Fun?: The Evolution of Human Sexuality: The potential advantages of male lactation are numerous. It would promote a type of emotional bonding of father to child now available only to women.....Today, many or most mothers in first-world societies have already become unavailable for breast-feeding, whether because of jobs, illness, or lactational failure. Yet not only parents but also babies derive many benefits from breast-feeding. Breast-fed babies acquire stronger immune defenses and are less susceptable to numerous diseases....Male lactation could provide those benefits to babies if the mother is unavailable for any reason. Diamond also wrote about male lactation in his article Father's Milk (Discover, Feb., 1995; pages 83-87): Experience may tell you that producing milk and nursing youngsters is a job for the...

While many people don't agree with all of the tenets of LLL, EVERY new mom will benefit from reading this book. It lets readers know that with very few exceptions, every woman can successfully breastfeed her baby. The bias is, of course, that every mom should breastfeed. After reading this book, it is hard to argue with this premise. The book provides information on the technical aspects of nursing as well as the physical, medical and emotional benefits. They provide details that show that no formula can even come close to copying the contents of breast milk. The authors make it clear that they believe that breastfeeding is THE best thing that moms can do for their babies. No matter how the reader feels about LLL, parents can benefit from their message. They want moms to relax and know that they CAN breastfeed while giving their children a wonderful gift. Comment | Was this review helpful to you? (Report this) See less

About the Nestlé boycott and the different ways you can support it. Bookmark this page for its useful links. Nestlé is targeted with the boycott because monitoring conducted by the International Baby Food Action Network (IBFAN) finds it to be responsible for more violations of the World Health Assembly marketing requirements for baby foods than any other company (see the codewatch section for profiles of the different companies to target their malpractice). As UNICEF has said: "Marketing practices that undermine breastfeeding are potentially hazardous wherever they are pursued: in the developing world, WHO estimates that some 1.5 million children die each year because they are not adequately breastfed. These facts are not in dispute." Although Nestlé does dispute the facts. See the Your Questions Answered section for responses to Nestlé's denials and deception. The boycott will continue until Nestlé accepts and complies with Baby Milk Action's four-point plan for saving infant lives... See less
