This video is AMAZING and I'd love to see it go viral so EVERYONE EVERYWHERE can say "yeah, I saw that!" and so that nursing in public becomes commonplace everywhere, every day!

A recent article published in Australia's Herald Sun indicated that many Generation-Y women polled would not nurse their babies because of fear of embarrassment over public breastfeeding. As much as 75 percent of these young women felt that nursing in public was uncomfortable and few understood the benefits of breastfeeding for themselves or their babies.
Inspired by the article in the Herald Sun (Australia), the Holistic Moms Network has launched a new project to highlight the beauty and confidence of breastfeeding women. HMN members from across North America submitted photos of themselves proudly breastfeeding their children - everywhere from the Eiffel Tower to the Brooklyn Bridge - for the Nursing Our Future video.
Thanks so much for posting it! I'm not on FB but I will email it to all my friends - hopefully some of them will post it.
You're welcome! I don't know where else on MDC to post it, but I truly want it seen on as many blogs and in posts and on FB and MySpace and Twitter... LOL
I think everyone should see this so that nursing in public is seen as natural and every day and people stop being insensitive to nursing mothers!
