Well said Jan. I like to discuss discreet nursing (I will now change my terminology)in my classes because many of them come to class thinking they will never nurse in public and want to pump and bottle feed. (I don't understand it either). Some may change their mind once their baby is in their arms and others are coming to our support group, bottle feeding with milk they have pumped. Showing them pictures, clothes and slings, may get them out in the world nursing, less pumping, and in many cases, breastfeeding longer. *********************************************** To temporarily stop your subscription: set lactnet nomail To start it again: set lactnet mail (or digest) To unsubscribe: unsubscribe lactnet All commands go to [log in to unmask] The LACTNET mailing list is powered by L-Soft's renowned LISTSERV(R) list management software together with L-Soft's LSMTP(TM) mailer for lightning fast mail delivery.
