Well...not exactly! I took a day off today to take my family and a few extra kids to see the Statue of Liberty. I was wearing my ultra-fashionable "Feel the Love: Breastfeed" T-Shirt. A worker on the ferry came up to me and said, "I like your shirt. My wife's doing that right now. We have a 3 week old baby." I smiled and congratulated the proud papa, who then told me, "It was very hard in the beginning...". "I'm glad she kept with it", I encouraged. To which he replied, "We had a cons..., a couns..., a lact..." "Lactation Consultant?", I offered. "That's it!", with relief. She was great. A really nice person, too. It helped so much to have her. And now breastfeeding is going well." Isn't that nice to hear? One of us made a difference to the wife of a maintenance worker on the Liberty Island Ferry and now he is a beaming breastfeeding advocate as well as a proud papa. Happy World Breastfeeding Week, one and all. -Debi Page Ferrarello, RN, IBCLC Back home in the Philadelphia suberbs
