Louise Wheeler’s daughter feeds contentedly at her mom’s breast. Louise wrote that for her daughter, who was 3 years old when this picture was taken, nursing was “her favourite way to chill out and have some bonding time with me after the birth of her sister.”
Young and eager

At 1 day old, Joy Mottram’s twins eagerly take to her breasts for that special mother’s milk. Joy took this picture herself. It’s the first of several that she sent that I hope to publish over time, showing her twins breastfeeding as they grow. You can find more about Joy and her children on her blog at incredibleshrinkingjoy.blogspot.com.

A toast to the weekend
April 18, 2009
Since it’s Saturday, let’s raise a toast to the weekend! Heather Hartung-MacRae enjoys a non-alcoholic beer while breastfeeding her baby during a break in what she said was “a long hike in Southern Germany — hence the really wind-messed hair.” I wouldn’t worry about the hair, Heather. Your smile and your nursing make this a beautiful picture.
