I am celebrating World Breastfeeding Week 2011 this week. It started August 1 (today) and ends on August 7.
I’ll be making this a sticky as well to add links during the week with cool finds and important info.
In case you didn’t know, I am pro-breastfeeding as I breastfed my first son for 18 months and my newest little guy is breastfed as well. I like to call myself a lactivist (lactation activist), but don’t worry I won’t beat you up if you chose to feed your child another way. I’m just glad you fed your child! I like to educate my friends and family, but ultimately the decision will be up to you.

Thanks for sharing all the links. With this pregnancy almost over, I really need to start thinking about BFing!
