Hi all on Lactnet
Isn't it *funny* how words in one context can be viewed as either positive
or negative re:breastfeeding. The reference to the recent article sited  -
and letter to the editor of the magazine - emboldened the phrase WHIP IT OUT
(!).

I remember back (way back) that in one LLL group the phrase "When in doubt
whip it out" being used in our (thriving , babies included) So. Calif group
as an *endearing* way to let moms know it was OK to nurse - whenever.
