Saturday Link Love

I am trying to get into the habit of getting my posts on a general schedule. Saturday's posts will be a round up of cool and interesting links I have come across that week.

This is a neat article that is about extended breastfeeding but it also has some great explanations of attachment parenting.


This is a news article about a mother who was asked to stop breast feeding in public at a mall. In protest, she later organized a nurse in. It caught my eye, because just the week before my youngest brother Eric, was at the mall with one of his army friends and they came across a mother nursing without a cover. His friend, actually said something to this mother and asked her to stop breastfeeding and got in her face about it. My brother, then made a scene and told his friend off and protected the mother's right to feed in public. When he told me, he said he just got so upset because in his mind, he pictured me nursing Penelope and having some jerk come up to me and say something. The mother was also very shocked to see this young, single male stand up for her, but was so grateful. I was SO proud of him!


Cool article about the age of natural weaning in humans. Hmmmm, it seems all these links are about breast feeding this week, not intentional!


This last one, is blog post about what to do to help ease teething pain. I liked it because I could have written it myself, it's exactly the things we did to cope with Penelope's first two teefers she got this month.
