I would really like to see MTV or some "hip" program do a special on a celebrity mom who choose to breastfeed.  I saw two programs last year, one with Brandy and one with Toni Braxton and both babies had bottles, although Brandy's doula mentioned breastfeeding at one point.  I heard that Faith Hill was breastfeeding during the taping of one of her videos during a part with just her face.  Since most of us find celebrities interesting, I would love to hear more of them talking about how awesome breastfeeding is.  I think it's time for the return of the sacred female--beautiful, strong, empowered, breastfeeding mothers.  Mothers and future mothers would do well with more of these images.  Maybe we could all write to MTV to do a breastfeeding mom special.
