August 1 - 7 is World Breastfeeding Week!
That's right, it's here! That time of year when we all talk about how Americans in general treat women who deign to (GASP!) nurse in public. No doubt you've seen or heard about the Babytalk mag cover with an actual baby attached to an actual boob. It's sparked quite a controversy, but we're pretty sure the actual controversy is the fact that it's controversial at all. What is more natural and has the potential to do so much good?
Between public admonishment and difficulty in finding workplace accomodations for pumping, what's a mom to do? Don't give up. Get help and get strong. Whip 'em out and tell 'em to shove it. Or let your shirt speak for you. We've found a perfect one at Hip Baby that says "If nursing in public offends you, please feel free to put a blanket over your own head!" You can get this and other great BF gear in our special "Breastfeeding" section, and don't forget to check out the breastfeeding resources at MommiesTees.com
