My doula, Rebecca, has written this article in The Guardian about the "breast milk baby doll" - a doll that allows children to pretend to breastfeed. She says it highlights how confused we are about breastfeeding that people think the doll is 'gross'.
I have to agree that I think normalising breastfeeding in the eyes of young male and female children is essential - and boobs aren't just sexy things to gawp or giggle at. (I've started to see this a bit in ds1 who's 6).
Thoughts?
