Another beautiful and sensitive portraiture in your series of a mommy and her newborn, showing the importance of nursing your baby. MY POD! --You know, David, I'm Dutch living in the States and I'm still stunned about the puritan point of view of lots of Americans. My daughter has to feed her baby-girl under a kind of "tent" which she drapes around her shoulders when she is not at home; Almost 30 years ago I breast fed my daughter in the open in a restaurant in the Netherlands. I so totally agree with Nelly!! When breasts are used for feeding, you should not have to hide them! --Love and Light, Olga
