rainingkisses |
do you have a LLL in your area? |
|
10:26:31 |
generickat |
but, 2 of my friends are pregnant and
I've convinced them to breastfeed for at
least the first 6 weeks |
|
10:26:48 |
rainingkisses |
and oh--Noel--have you read the latest
New Beginnings? |
|
10:26:52 |
generickat |
I don't know the LLL but, I'm sure there
are some. I dont' have any problems
breastfeeding really. It's so natural
that it's quite easy |
|
10:26:58 |
rainingkisses |
that's awesome! Hopefully they'll stick
with it |
|
10:27:12 |
rainingkisses |
well, LLL is a great place to go to meet
other like minded moms and offer support |
|
10:27:51 |
Host_Housepoet |
I had trouble, but got over it with a
good LC |
|
10:28:02 |

|
10:30:16 |
generickat |
are you going to make it where members
can post things like that? |
|
10:30:38 |
rainingkisses |
we just moved to Texas, but I've had a
couple weird NIP experiences since we
came here |
|
10:30:52 |
rainingkisses |
mostly just being able to tell people
were uncomfortable but didn't say
anything. |
|
10:30:54 |
Host_Housepoet |
we're working on a database |
|
10:30:56 |
generickat |
I also travelled to TN while
breastfeeding and Arkansas and I've had
experiences in both of those places as
well... |
|
10:31:05 |
Host_Housepoet |
but there is a message board, where you
can put content for your state |
|
10:31:14 |
Host_Housepoet |
shoot, you could even be a state captain
if there isn't one yet |
|
10:31:21 |
rainingkisses |
hehe |
|
10:31:24 |
Host_Housepoet |
and plus TX is so big that we would
probably need two |
|
10:31:28 |
Host_Housepoet |
we have four in california |
|
10:31:31 |
generickat |

10:31:37 |
Host_Housepoet |

|
10:31:38 |
generickat |
Houston is the 3rd biggest city in the
US lol |
