Happened to turn on the TV while I was quilting yesterday and caught several
references to our favorite topic. "The girls" had a segment about all the
things you need to get to take to the hospital (designer pillowcases,
doughnuts for nurses, etc.) -- they had 3 different brands of breastpumps
("get the one you want before you get there"). Then they talked about having
the hospital lactation consultant help you with your pump. (Also mentioned
that over 75% of moms start out breastfeeding.)
"But make sure you get them to help you with the breastfeeding so you're off
to a good start....It's much harder to find a lactation consultant when you
get home."
During a later segment one of the participants said, "Oh, I just loved
breastfeeding!"

I could complain about the pillowcases and etc - but I was just very
thankful to have people talk about breastfeeding as a part of life!
