Both were posted here not toooo long ago I think but I can't find it..... You know the "if you nurse your baby for 1 day.... 2 years...."... I'd like to send it to a friend of mine who is getting some nasty words at work for nursing her :gasp: 6 month old and wanting to nurse until at least 2 years (God forbid LOL)..... Anyways.. I thought that and the dr seuss for nusing mommies would cheer her up :)

TIA

Me too. But I think it's just one of those instances where she's going to have to ignore it if she doesn't feel like "educating the masses"... from what I understand the people making these comments are quite ignorant where she works... I mean "breastfeeding after six months is incest"... give me a break. It's soooo ignorant it would be laughable, except that one of the workers told her that she "explained to her [friend] that breastfeeding after 6 months was wrong and after one week she'd stopped"... sad that she was even able to have any effect on another woman's nursing relationship...

This one?

“Suess” for Nursing Mothers

Mother’s milk is just the thing!

Would you nurse her at the park?
Would you nurse him in the dark?
Would you nurse him with a Boppy?
And when your boobs are feeling floppy?

I would nurse him in the park,
I would nurse her in the dark.
I’d nurse with or without a Boppy.
Floppy boobs will never stop me.

Can you nurse with your seat belt on?
Can you nurse from dusk till dawn?
Though she may pinch me, bite me, pull,
I will nurse her ‘till she’s full!

Can you nurse and make some soup?
Can you nurse and feed the group?
It makes her healthy strong and smart,
Mommy’s milk is the best start!

Would you nurse him at the game?
Would you nurse her in the rain?
In front of those who dare to complain?
I would nurse him at the game.
I would nurse her in the rain.

As for those who protest lactation,
I have a perfect explanation.
Mommy milk is tailor made
It’s perfect food, you need no aid.

Some may scoff and some may wriggle,
Avert their eyes or even giggle.
To those who can be cruel and rude,
Remind them breast’s the perfect food!

I would never scoff or giggle,
Roll my eyes or even wiggle!
I would not be so crass or crude,
I KNOW that this milk’s the perfect food!

We make the right amount we need,
The perfect temp for every feed.
There’s no compare to milk from breast-
The perfect food, above the rest.

Thos nursing smiles are oh so sweet,
Mommy milk is such a treat.
Human milk just can’t be beat.

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.
