World Breastfeeding Week
« on: September 15, 2005, 14:17:03 pm »
Hi everyone - if you didn't know, the World Breastfeeding Week happens in North America from October 1 - 7.  There are probably some fun activities happening in your area if you look for them!

The group I belong to, Nourri-Source, along with La Leche League, and a bunch of other supporters, is organizing a Breastfeeding Challenge in Montreal (to any local moms!).  Everyone is welcome to come down to Place Ville Marie on October 1st (Saturday) from 10am - 1pm with their lo's.  At exactly 11am, everyone is encouraged to nurse their children and they do a count all across Canada and the US! There are also door prizes and stuff and it's all free.

A bunch of my friends are planning to go - if anyone else is interested, let me know and maybe we can meet up. :D
