I've been in favor of nursing in public.... as long as I've been nursing. <BR/><BR/>I was never really around anyone nursing - let alone in public - before I needed to breastfeed my own children. I remember my few encounters with women in public nursing their children - I was uncomfortable adnd didn't really know what to think. I agree that if more women nursed in public, it would help normalize it more... <BR/><BR/>Thanks for the post!Marketing Mamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01092466674384204546noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-472399563141922488.post-55295079340314631442009-02-15T20:22:00.000-05:002009-02-15T20:22:00.000-05:00Preach it, sister!

It's an outrageous notion and this whole Denny's story really makes me mad!! Agghhh!<BR/><BR/>The nurse-in thing is a great idea :)<BR/><BR/>And in response to your comment (because I wasn't sure if you'd check back to that post to see if I'd responded), yes, I drink coffee while pregnant. My midwife is of the opinion that one cup per day is all right - however, I don't drink it every day. On the days that I have it in the morning, if I decide I'd like some more later on, I always have decaf. I personally feel the effects of coffee VERY strongly :) so I don't really like to have more than one caffeinated cup per day even when I'm not pregnant (although sometimes it DOES happen).<BR/><BR/>When I was first pregnant, I mostly avoided coffee and went for a tasty, spicy Good Earth black tea. It gave me a little kick in the morning, but wasn't quite as strong as coffee.<BR/><BR/>As far as my views on caffeine and pregnancy, hmm...let's just say that I realize caffeine is not necessary to my health, but I believe it's okay in thoughtful moderation. <BR/><BR/>Hope that helps!Rissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08162616567825619295noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-472399563141922488.post-60352854384260917982009-02-14T03:01:00.000-05:002009-02-14T03:01:00.000-05:00Thank you & amen!!

I do, however, think a breast feeding mother is beautiful, intimate thing--witnessing such an event is an honour.<BR/><BR/>You are right about teaching future mothers what's right.
