All this breastfeeding talk...

It's actually been very nice to read all this. Most people have been civil so far, which leads me to believe that most of us have learned something from the internet.

While I haven't read Julie's recent comments, I did read through the first 97 or so, and I didn't feel that any of them were too judgemental.

Progress.

Progress.

I've been wanting to post about this for a while now. Not boobs and breastfeeding, but how times, they are a' changing. There is so much less of the mommy-drive-by-ing everwhere thanks to the pioneers like Grrl, Julie, Tertia, and SO many others.

I used to be so snobby... I was able to breastfeed both of my kids easily. When I went back to school/work I supplemented with formula a little, but I was a WINNER. I did it. It was difficult, but I decided that if I could do it, then anyone should be able to. Boy was I stupid.

The good old internet.

I have learned so much from all of the smart, funny, gorgeous women out here than I have in all my 20 years of schooling. What I've learned has made me not only smarter, but so much more compassionate and empathetic. They can't teach that in school. Only the best of the best, those whom I've mentioned here and countless others that I haven't mentioned, are able to effectively make the rest of us stupid-heads listen up and figure out how to respect our fellow woman.

We are a much better bunch of people because of it.

thank you all.
