Here's my letter (email accepted from
http://homearts.com/mail/rbmail.htm). Sorry but I did mention bf
discretely. I agree it is not necessary, but wanted to mention that not
every bf photo has to show a breast necessarily. Read on:

Redbook:

I am glad so glad you featured breastfeeding on your November cover. It
certainly was a beautiful photo. I feel that all subscribers should have
gotten a breastfeeding cover. Breastfeeding is normal and natural and its
"exposure" should be increased in the media. However, many people are not
used to seeing mothers and babies breastfeed. You should know that
mothers can breastfeed very discretely by simply lifting their shirts
from below and covering up the skin above.
