Breastfeeding Moms Need Kudos

Have you ever walked by a mom who was breastfeeding? What did you do? I used to always pretend I didn’t see because I didn’t want to make her feel uncomfortable. Now, I walk up and give her a thumbs up or a “great job” – I want her to know that I am impressed with what she is doing and that she should feel proud! I have heard of so many stories from moms who were motivated by being given complements for nursing in public – so many who felt uncomfortable and after the complement felt so great!

The next time when you walk by a nursing mom, please take five seconds to give her your vote of confidence. And please leave us a comment on this post letting us know how you have offered kudos to someone or how someone offered kudos to you!
