I love the beautiful photographs about the trend for breastfeeding
"selfies" in this article:

The only thing I don't like in the article is the term "milk drunk" in the
second paragraph. It is not the point of the article, but I have heard LC's
use it and I think it is a negative word that should be reserved for
alcoholic inebriation. I don't think words like that should be thrown
around loosely with families and babies. I have also heard comatose. How
many families have had a loved one seriously ill or another with alcohol
addiction? Nomenclatures such as these bring to mind frightening
circumstances. For a healthy beautiful breastfeeding baby who is relaxed
after feeding why can't we say satisfied, satiated or well fed.
