Casual Breastfeeding Chat #1
6/8/05

PART 1--

This was a casual chat that happened to coincide with a radio talk show where the topic was breastfeeding in public and the recent controversy with Barbara Walters and The View...During the chat, the mamas were listening to the show on the internet radio and also calling in...More than a few of the chatters were able to get on the air...The conversation may be a bit hard to follow at times because they are referring to what is being said on the air.

Also, the weekly Mothering Magazine sponsored chat was attempting to happen around the same time but the speaker, Katie Granju, was unable to get into the chat...but that's where the info about the Mothering chat with Katie Granju comes in. :)

Lastly, this Breastfeeding chat happened twice during the same day because the show re-aired later that same evening (Part 2).
