Here's the winning entry for Motherwear's recent nursing story/tip contest, submitted by Ginger Carney:
When I was nursing my first child, Caroline, I had an encounter
with my young nephew, just 3
years old at the time. I
had sat down to relax and breastfeed
her when my nephew wandered over
to me and looked curiously at
his little cousin at the breast. Since
I don't believe he had ever seen
a baby nursing (he was not breastfed),
he asked "WHAT
is she doing??!!" Quietly and matter-of-factly I
said, "She's eating."Immediately his eyes became wide with surprise
as he replied loudly, "She eats PEOPLE??!!"
You can read other great stories and tips. I'll pull together my favorites into a post soon.
