Host_Housepoet |
we NEED articles written still for those subjects |
|
11:06:33 |

acidflowers |
why does doesn't look like that? |
|
11:09:12 |
talula_fairie |
they are supporting this campeign, I can't rmember what
it's called, but it's all about making moms feel good
aobut bottlefeeding OR breastfeeding |
|
11:09:21 |
Host_Housepoet |
but without a govt. offical to enforce the code it
doesn't matter |
|
11:09:25 |
talula_fairie |
no coincidence they are launching it during world
breastfeeding week |
|
11:09:26 |
Host_Housepoet |
look like what? |
|
11:09:31 |
acidflowers |
doesn’t |
|
11:09:36 |
Host_Housepoet |

my boppy is sitting in the trunk of the car. i haven't
used it for don't know how long. thank goodness for my
breastfriend |
|
11:10:53 |
mwalton |
amen..but i think that's one of the biggest problems if
not the biggest in our society right now is that people
try to schedule babies into their own lives..fit them in
somewhere rather than doing what's best for them... |
|
11:10:53 |
talula_fairie |
it's public |
|
11:10:54 |
Hisrisingstar |
dont have it in the house as temptation |
