Fabulous! Thank you for sharing!

Love it

What a talented woman.
Although I finished bfing 14 years ago I am amazed that there can be any prejudice remaining against it - just flabbergasted.

A bump for the daytime MNetters

Wow, just wow!! I have just seen this on FB. This lady is seriously talented and it is bonkers that bf is still ostracised in our world of Page 3 and top shelf acceptance. I only bf my two for 6 months each but its seriously hard to keep up at first with the feeling you are doing something 'wrong'. Hopeing this gets lots of publicity..

Gah hoping

It's really good. But there's not much hope if it's other mothers who are pointing and laughing at you while you bf.

I follow her on youtube as her other poems are great too. I'm pleased she also mentioned that bottle feeding is ok too in her poem (I had no letdown so could not breastfeed despite desperately trying)
