Nursing Our Future... 2011
It has been nearly a year since I created this video for the Holistic Moms Network.
I still get choked up listening to Catherine Marie Charlton's song Gouda and Grapes - because I can see the pictures of the moms in my head. Pictures that moms from chapters all across the country felt compelled to send in for the video in response to one email asking to help support breastfeeding mothers everywhere.
Moms who know and understand the need for breastfeeding support. Moms who know and understand that the more breastfeeding is seen for what it is - feeding and nurturing a child at the breast - the more it will become commonplace and unquestioned... at Tavern on the Green, a children's museum, a coffee shop, at the Acropolis, the Eiffel Tower!
In solitude and in solidarity - WE MUST NURSE!
Please watch the video - and share it with everyone you know - and those you don't know - because breastfeeding is the way nature intended our future generations to be nourished and comforted and it needs to be seen (in videos, in private homes, in public places and on Facebook!)

Cool video. My kids are big now and although I loved having my babies, the one thing I miss more than anything else about their babyhood,is the incredible and beautiful bond I experienced with my two kids when I was nursing them. It was painful at first, but that went away so quickly and then it was absolutely magical :)
