Rummey Bears on Breastfeeding

Photo: Anna and Rosie, circa 2011.

There's something so powerful and intense and elemental
about nursing standing up,
holding a baby in your arms.
No chair, no footrest, no boppy, no nursing cover, not even a sling.
The kiddo is hungry and needs your comfort,
and in that moment, as mama, you have everything they need.
I always feel like a tender, healing, superhero at moments like that.
Like I could do anything.
I love this photo because it captures such a moment so perfectly.
Thanks for sending it to me, Anna.
