I want to know more about tumblr — when I typed it into the http line I got a blogging service — I take it this is a source to find images, but am not sure how to “use” it. Can you help>

I love powerful images, in all forms. And I think that the memory of any of my babies’ tiny little hands on me, anywhere, are among the warmest, most powerful memories I possess.

I think you have the porn industry to blame for this, not that I would ever support it in any way.
I don’t think I’d like to see breastfeeding in public where I live either, honestly any kind of nudity on the streets of a big city is creepy…and anyway why would a mom want to breastfeed in public ?? Why not keep to the comfort of your own home ?

I am currently breastfeeding my third child and love seeing images like this- the communion between mother and child and the time when they seem to be just an extension of your body. Thank you!

I just weaned, and right now almost nothing carries the emotional power that images of nursing mothers do. Consider this loved.

Andra, I don’t understand why you said you have to be a mom to understand. I don’t have children and I think this is beautiful, especially nowadays with all the crime and wars etc…this is a rare event. Also in some states in America it became prohibited to breastfeed in public…

I breastfed both my chirren’s so images of breastfeeding tend to remind me of the aftermath. My once small and perkies were reduced to empty sacks. Anywho, it is a lovely, real image. Breasts being used/abused for their intended purpose. For those of you gals who have no interest in babies and are even averse to the idea, at least you know yourselves well enough to realize this now. I had no idea how ill fit the role of SAHM was for me until I found myself sobbing into the phone begging my husband to “come home and take these babies before I drop them off at the nearest church.” It gets easier though.

Yay Alicia! That made my day. Dexter, think that baby’s Mammy is wearing a sari & choti- which explains the earrings. My mum wanted to do mine when I was a baby so people would know I was a girl- and she told me this of course.
Going to ask my Gran to knit a hat for me now xx

As someone without kids, but at an age where every single person is demanding that I have them, I’ve been married forever on top of that, I have to say that image put me off for another year.

I have to agree with Cami. It is a sweet image, but as someone with absolutely no interest in having children or even holding someone else’s baby for 30 seconds, I just don’t find it appealing. I can only think of it metaphorically as something sucking out my vitality!

This image is beautiful, but I’m going to be the grinch here and say (as a woman without child), babies/children sorta freak me out. Maybe it is the fact that I don’t come into contact with them at all in my life… I will of course overcome this when my friends all begin to get pregnant and all of a sudden I have an invested interest in these little people. Not long now!
