I want to be sensitive to my friends decisions but also advocate strongly and kindly for these ideas.Rebekahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02034913066736042172noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1129109015069360174.post-42848308019781506042011-03-15T07:03:32.913-07:002011-03-15T07:03:32.913-07:00What an interesting concept!

I totally agree with the concept though! None of this - back at work two weeks later nonsense! What time do you have to bond, and what hope do you have to establish breastfeeding! <br /><br />Great post - I think it's very interesting and I totally agree that RELATING to other people who are doing the same is an essential part of the success or failure.Hermanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06197058428413715227noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1129109015069360174.post-56830274011067557192011-03-14T16:35:58.765-07:002011-03-14T16:35:58.765-07:00Very interesting.

In the early days, mom should really just be concentrating on feeding the baby and everything else SHOULD be left to partners and family members. Feeding and nurturing a baby is important work and everyone should be supporting mom. We need to reclaim this practice for all women!Elitahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01294923997458681675noreply@blogger.com
