Angele says regarding a teen mom-to-be:
"I can't stand the thought of something sucking on me all
day." I was taken aback, took a deep breath, and replied that babies do
love to suck, but that I understood how that may seem overwhelming - then
promptly changed the subject.
There was a rap style video available at the ILCA booth titled "Breastfeed Ya Baby". At one point this concern was addressed.
I haven't heard the whole thing through (they were announcing raffle winners on the PA system at the same time I was trying to hear the video) but it seemed quite clever and appropriate. I plan to share it at our next coalition meeting.
