Fellow Lactnetters & Lactivists: As I read the paper this morning I was excited to see that Olympic star Sheryl Swoopes is BF her son, Jordan Eric Jackson, who was born June 25. But, alas, I read on to see that it was announced that "she'll probably switch to bottles in three or four weeks." (Bottles of "what", it does not say--is it too hopeful that it's EHM???) The Associated Press article really played her up as mothering is #1, and her basketball career in the newly formed WNBA (Women's National Basketball Association) was going to fit around it. It also says that her son will travel with her, and if he gets sick, mom will stay put with him. I would think the Houston Comets (her team) would encourage her to BF if they want her at the games!!! Though the team is doing well (9-5), winning 4 of their last 5 games! The article states her home is in Lubbock, TX, and she played college ball at Texas Tech. Any great BF advocates out there in Texas land have any connections, or ideas??? What a great role-model she already is, and to think if we could only keep her BF, .....or pumping.......
