Get Your Boobs Ready: Record-Breaking Worldwide Nurse-In August 8

Posted by on July 31st, 2007 at 1:55 pm

breastfeeding-baby-lactation-motherCapping off World Breastfeeding Week, which starts tomorrow, is a hopefully record-breaking mass breastfeeding event, the strength of which could even cause spontaneous lactation in sensitive souls not even participating. Starting in New Zealand at 10 am local time, as the earth rotates it will bring a fresh wave of group breastfeeding in each time zone around the world.

Interested in participating? Check out this list of participating countries and contacts for getting involved. It’s not too late! 

Some of the goals of the event, in addition to establishing a new record for the most mothers breastfeeding at the same time, are :

  1. To nurture a fellowship among breastfeeding mothers
    in their locality and country that may facilitate the formation of
    mother support groups.

  2. To
    establish simultaneous breastfeeding as a form of universal prayer for
    peace and thanksgiving for the gift of motherhood and breastfeeding.

Sounds good to me! If I were still nursing I’d definitely participate.
