This past week’s nursing news!

This past week has been an incredible week for breastfeeding in the news!
If you have a Facebook account and are a nursing Mama, you’re probably familiar with what’s been going on. If not, here’s the short version: a very, very popular breastfeeding support page was removed. Their numbers doubled – in a DAY – on a group made in protest of the removal. Media outlets were contacted and the Mama that started it all is doing her best to make sure that Facebook understands that removing a group like this falls into the realm of discrimination. The New York Times has the whole story.
I just love it when celebrities (or their wives) step out and support breastfeeding. Just love it!
