Celebrate our one year anniversary with a sticker!
This week marks the one year anniversary of the Motherwear Breastfeeding Blog.
One year ago this week I was feeling very nervous. I had agreed to write the blog for Motherwear, but this project was nothing like I'd ever done before. I was squeamish about the technology and unsure of what and how to write. I'm also not a "if you build it they will come" kind of person. To top it off my husband was out of town for a week, so I didn't have my usual sounding board.
Then I put up the first post, and it worked! I'm indebted to Motherwear for their support and trust, but most of all to those of you who read it. I've made some great friends, and have learned an awful lot, both about blogging but more importantly about breastfeeding and motherhood in general.
To celebrate this anniversary, Motherwear has been kind enough to purchase 50 of our local breastfeeding coalition's "Breastfeeding Welcome Here" stickers for me to give away. If you'd like one, send an email with your address to Alison at Motherwear. Then bring it to a local business or your employer and make it a breastfeeding friendly place!
Here are a few of my favorite posts from the last year:
- I knew it was too quiet in there
- Take the Motherwear Pledge!
- Ready to fly
- The top 10 breastfeeding stories of 2006
- Everything old is new again: cross nursing and wet nursing in the news
- Got breastmilk onesies?
- Sittin' on the couch, saving the planet
- Very, very wrong
- Were you sold out for a sandwich?

I'm just new to this blog. (First time commenter!) One year is fabulous! I e-mailed you for a sticker. As we're gearing up to breastfeed with the arrival of our (next) son, I'm sure it will be handy to give SOME place! :)
Happy anniversary!
