I was actually not solely busy with Oliver the last few weeks, a lot of my time has been spent installing, designing and in general getting a new blog up and ready to go. Blythe, Maria, Tammy, Lynn and I are all coauthors on our new site, MamasWorldwide.com. The blog will focus on parenting topics and product reviews written by moms around the world. My first post is How does the World View Public Breastfeeding? If you’re interested in those kinds of topics, check it out!

I have to say as an Anglo-Saxon Washingtonian, the first time I saw my sister-in law breast feed her toddler at a family gathering, it was a bit of a shock, but as I was in the midst of a de-conservatism/realism phase, I came to the conclusion (fortunately, quickly and without opening my big mouth) that it was something completely natural and what else was a mother to do? Now I am someone who wouldn’t criticise either way (breast-fed or bottle-fed), but neither are abnormal to me either.
How’s that for riding the fence?
Thanks, Sam. I’ve got the link fixed now (changed the title over there after I’d scheduled the post over here). Now I see that overflow is not quite working, as the links in your comment are wonky (at least in Firefox).
I think you have the perfect attitude now. Women should be able to choose what works for them. I admit that I am sometimes judgmental of women who choose not to breastfeed. I worked really, really hard to be able to breastfeed and sometimes it gets to me when a mom chooses not to. But I bite my tongue and remind myself that until I’ve lived their life, I can’t say anything about the choices they make!
