Celebrating World Breastfeeding Week, Aug 1-7. Day #3 Image, Affirmation, and Action.

Affirmation: My milk and me are the most important things for my baby.

Action: Capture a sweet little print of your baby’s hand today, using a bit of paint or a stamp pad, or take the outline of her hand with a colored pencil. Stick it on the fridge, or in a sweet little place that you can see it. If you are back to work and nursing, put this in your pump bag, a sweet reminder of your little child.
