Did anyone watch Little House on the Prairie last Friday morning on TBS?
Benjamin (my 3 1/2 year old) Christina (my one month old) and I only caught
the last ten minutes but it was the episode where Ma gives birth to baby
Grace and Pa catches baby Grace in the candlelight.  He bathed baby Grace
right after she was born and then gave her to Ma.  In lught of all the
birth and breastfeeding garbage you see on TV, it was great to see a
wonderful dipiction of normal birth!  BTW, I saw a commercial for the
upcoming episode of Chicago Hopeless last night.  In a quick video clip,
some doctor is talking about a baby being starved.

Maurenne, who's BF baby is thriving on mama's milk, definitely NOT starved
