If you are weirded out by posts about breastfeeding, or if words like breast and nipple make you uncomfortable then you might want to stop reading this post. :-) I know this is can be a sensitive topic for some, and I am not trying to make a statement or “prove” that my way is better than another.

Today was very tiring! There was a big baby-related Expo here in Atlanta, and Arlanta Birth Center had a vendor table there. I went to help represent the birth center, and talk to people more about what a birth center is, why we need one, and how they can help.
