Are you a Feminist struggling to make sense of domestic life?

Breast Crawl

From the site: "UNICEF, WHO and WABA along with the scientific community
strongly recommend initiating breastfeeding within an hour of birth.
Evidence shows that early initiation can prevent 22% of all deaths
among babies below one month in developing countries.

Every newborn, when placed on the mother’s abdomen, soon after birth,
has the ability to find its mother’s breast all on its own and to decide
when to take the first breastfeed. This is called the ‘Breast Crawl’"

Comment by Cassandra on January 14, 2008 at 7:33pm: I don't think I've cried so hard about something positive like this in a good, long while.

What a poignant and fantastic video. I now know what I'd like to emphasize in my birth plan (provided my baby survives this pregnancy).
