While browsing the Breastfeeding forum at MDC today, the following google ad caught my eye:
Tee hee… not quite sure if that’s exactly the type of pump nursing mums are looking for, but thanks for the recommendation anyway!

Ashlee of Nest Baby Slings and Mama [...]

We’re moving house. hopefully very soon!
Mr. HPP’s job moved to a village just outside the city, resulting in a very long bike commute for him. It’s not too bad now with all the general pleasantness of cycling in summer, but in the winter, brrrr… He cycles along the coast road which even now has a [...]

He doesn’t want to travel. He will stay here. Safe. He will wait for her, no matter how long, no matter what happens. It’s [...]

I gave up eating chicken nuggets long before I became vegetarian, once you read what goes into a chicken nugget you can’t look at them the same again! Plus nine times out of ten I would always end up gagging on a piece of gristle, ugh!

I have an online shopping problem, you all know that. Here are the latest fruits of my shopping labours… two new books for Littlepixie, ah selfless guilt-free shopping, the best kind!

I’ve been following a thread on MDC where people have been adding links to their favourite breastfeeding images, be they photos, paintings, sketches, statues, advertisements, public awareness campaigns or jewellery.

My latest post for API Speaks, this one’s for all the wonderful dads!
