Breastfeeding mothers in action!

I have some good ideas for my breastfeeding window for August and I need some help with one of them! I think I want to do a collage of women breastfeeding while going about their normal everyday activities. Nursing in a sling in the grocery store, while eating out, in the park, etc....

If anyone would like to be a part of my collage please send me a picture at lindsay.baker@comcast.net or post it here!

I think this would be a fun way to show women that breastfeeding is normal, doesn't tie you down etc...

I may even take single pictures and display them on an easel or hang them with fishing wire.

Thanks for your help! And if you have any other ideas that would be good for the window please let me know

Oh how I would love to send a pic for you. Unfortunately, I don't have any bf pictures of DD and myself. There must be mamas here who do though! Or perhaps you could include some simple line drawings of nursing mothers here and there in your window?

What are the photos for? A breastfeeding window? At home, or a business, or? I'd like to know more because I could certainly contribute

I don't really have any ideas for you, but I think its awesome. I think something "3D" would be best, but what I don't know. Sorry I'm not of any help.

Oh how awesome! Yeah I'd totally love to help out Here's a link (I also have much larger versions if you need better resolution)

Nursing in the swimming pool
That one, I dunno if you'd want to use, because my big ol' tattoo *might* send a negative message to some silly people who think tattoos are bad... but I LOVE the photo!!

Hmmm I'm looking and the other nursing photos I have are more the sitting around the house type... I do have one at an MDC diaper party I could send Wow, I nurse Orion EVERYWHERE, but I don't have a lot of nursing photos... I'll have to make Dh take them for me! I'll try to get a few for ya

Aw thank you hunnybumm! I *make* Dh take photos, and actually that one a friend's sister took for us He was floating in the water nursing for an HOUR, and only stopped cuz I got us out. He *never* nurses that long anymore unless he's fallen asleep. He nursed again later forever in the hottub (not as long cuz we got hot). It was so cute, he just loves the water.

Its not too late, get some photos of the nursing loveliness! I have another one I of me totally topless nursing Orion. You can't see my breasts at all, Orion is covering them by laying in your standard nursing pose, but its just such a blatent nursing photo I adore it. I need to get Dh to take more of him nursing in the slings. I'm a sling junkie!

Starmama that is an awesome photo! And I love your tatoo. I have a moon and stars one on my arm that is much smaller. I want to expand it and the idea I have in my head is similar to yours

Any photos you can rope dh into taking would be very appreciated! Thanks!
