FEATURED TOPIC:
The August 2003 issue of Real Simple magazine featured an article called "20 Rules to Break Now". Included in what appeared, at first glance, to be a kitschy little piece, was one of the rules listed as a waste of time -- breastfeeding your child.
The magazine is now off of the newsstands and it appears that the editors chose not to publish any of the letters they received relating to the article. Time -- and the next issue -- will tell whether they ever plan to do so.
I want to thank everyone who wrote to Real Simple and its advertisers, and who took the time to write to me, read this site, and/or sign my guestbook. It felt good to be part of a small group of people who felt strongly about this issue. I hope to keep this site updated with breastfeeding links and other similar information.
One thing to keep in mind -- If you'd like to make a difference with your internet service provider dollars, check out NurtureNet, an ISP that donates 100% of profits to organizations that promote breastfeeding and other natural parenting practices. You can access information about this new ISP here. I don't use their service (because I have DSL), but it sure is a cool idea.
And click here for my curent breastfeeding links. But this is by far my favorite Site du Jour -- I love this woman!
