Share your breastfeeding photos

In honor of World Breastfeeding Week coming up in August, we are once again launching the Celebrity Baby Blog World Breastfeeding Week Photo Gallery.  Last year, our readers contributed over 400 photos of themselves breastfeeding their children!  (You can check it out here.)  I hope we’ll be able to surpass it this year!

To view and add your photos, please go to our Celebrity Baby Blog Breastfeeding Gallery group on Flickr. 

For more info and instructions on how to add your photos, please click Continue Reading.

Don’t have any photos of yourself breastfeeding your child?  Here’sa good excuse!  If you are still nursing, get someone to take a photoright now.  Many mothers have told us that they wish they had takenmore photos of themselves breastfeeding their child because it was oneof their favorite times with their children.  We take photos of ourkids smiling, playing, celebrating, why not of them nursing?

Please spread the word: email your friends, post about it on yourblog, tell others about it on the messageboards you frequent, to spreadthe word about our gallery.

Other events we have planned to celebrate World Breastfeeding Weekinclude raffles, giveaways, and breastfeeding workshops in New YorkCity.  (If you are a vendor who would like to donate products forgiveaway, please email danielle at celebrity-babies.com.)

Here’s how to add your photos.

First, you need to join Flickr, a great site to store, sort, search and share your photos online.  (It’s free, but there are bonus features when you upgrade to a Flickr Pro account, for $24.95 per year.)
