In the caption for this photo on Facebook, Laurie Kathryn Simpson wrote, “Hooray for all the supportive fathers who encourage and defend our right to breastfeed whenever, wherever!” I couldn’t say it better. This picture depicts so wonderfully a loving father watching his baby feed at mom’s breast.

Serenade for breastfeeding

It’s unusual to see a picture of a woman being serenaded while she breastfeeds her baby. Gillian Doan shared this picture, and I like the family togetherness that it shows. On her Facebook site, Gillian said this was a “special family time at the cottage.” She said her baby, who was 14 months old when the picture was made, was a good example that “Preemies can learn to breastfeed, too.”
