In reply to Mimi "MimiCuteLips" Green. More power to you, Mimi! I breastfed my first for a year, but found it really difficult to keep up with my second when I went back to work. I applaud you for sticking with it.

In reply to Mimi. Mimi, I'm glad to see that breastfeeding is becoming more widely accepted in our community. Black Breastfeeding Week helps to normalize breastfeeding and celebrate families.

I love this, I’m so proud to be a member of this club. I breastfed both of my kids for 14 months each. It was the best choice for my family. I will share my post about black women breastfeeding this week.

I love this! I’m glad that our communities are working to normalize breastfeeding. Just 10 years ago when I decided to breastfeed my son I can’t tell you how may whys and just out of the way remarks I got. Glad I had tough skin and didn’t let that deter me. I’m hoping campaigns like this will get the word out and change our communities perception on breastfeeding and encourage mothers to take this route when they can.
