Was watching an old rerun of Friends tonight and was reminded of the episode where Ross's ex-wife was nursing Ben and Chandler and Joey got all freaked out.

Love these lines:

ROSS: Look, would you guys grow up? That is the most natural beautiful thing in the world.

JOEY: Yeah, we know, but there's a baby suckin' on it.

LOL. I think that kind of sums up the problem that many men have with breastfeeding... ;)

    My brother-in-law (well, before he was my brother-in-law) left the room when I was feeding my first child some years ago, he said it was obscene, that's not what breasts are for. I beg to differ...(and no, my sister didn't breastfeed either of their offspring. Odd that.)

    Just curious if you know. Would it be illegal to donate breastmilk as a ministry? I notice other counties do it but I found no websites in America.

    Welcome aboard Prudence and thanks for the kind words.

    Totally legal to donate your breast milk, in fact there are several milk banks in the United States and Canada.

    Check out http://www.hmbana.org/ for more information.

    Not what breasts are for...LOL. Why, praytell, do they drip milk when a woman has a baby, whether she wants them to or not?
    _Whatever_

    Poor Jax!

    My dh is a huge fan of breastfeeding in public. He can't figure out why men are so weird with it...or why women are. He figures...it's a breast. Breasts are nice. Where's the problem? ;)

    LOL! One of the guys that I work with is from the south...his wife nursed until she went back to work and we were talking about breastfeeding in public once.

    His take on it is that breasts rock...and why would men NOT want more of them in public? ;)

    haha, that is perfect.

    Jax - I'm speachless! I feel so sorry for your brother-in-law.
