A Poem

Posted by Michelle on Dec 28, 2008 in Breastfeeding, Life, Parenting | 0 comments

Given the snide remarks that my sister overheard about my nursing in public yesterday, I find it fitting to have found this today.

Mom I Am (excerpt)
Written by a poster on the Mom’s Online Breastfeeding Board

I will nurse, in any case,
On the street or in your face.
I will not let my baby cry,
I’ll meet her needs, I’ll always try.
It’s not about what’s good for you,
It’s best for babies, through and through.

I will nurse her in my home,
I will nurse her when I roam.
Leave me be lads, leave me be ma’am.
I will nurse her, mom I am.
