As Sylvia mentioned earlier - Jerry Scott (writer) & Rick Kirkman (artist)
have done another great breastfeeding comic strip.

You can check it out on their website   www.babyblues.com

The strip shows "Hammie" (who is now over a year old and talking)
breastfeeding by request (Num-Num?, he asks).

Keeping in mind the power of the pen (and keyboard) and the negative media
attention that breastfeeding has gotten in the past few weeks - let's take
the opportunity to support a positive look at breastfeeding and praise
these guys and their work.  An email to the newspapers that carry Baby
Blues (or a request to those that don't) could make a difference in how
many people see this positive way breastfeeding is presented.
