People often ask me what I'm doing this year, and when I tell them I'm
studying to be a BREASTfeeding Counselor/Lactation Consultant (In Hebrew
they'e the same) they clam up - especially the Israelis. Change the
subject. Not even a "that's interesting". One man commented "I thought
was breastfeeding was natural" And in Hebrew the word for breastfeeding
doesn't include the word breast.
The basic reaction is "What the hell is that needed for?"
I'd be more interesting if I weaved baskets.
But then there are those who raise their eyebrows with an inquisitive look
and then clam up.
