Members send in stories all the time about their local adventures in breastfeeding. There are ones worthy of cheers (eg, stories of employers who are pumping-break friendly) and ones deserving jeers (eg, getting kicked off a plane and out of restaurants for breastfeeding).

Got a story you'd like to get off your chest? Maybe you got an encouraging word when you NIPped (nursed in public), or maybe you faced down someone who was giving you and your baby that disapproving look. Or maybe you're working with a local group to make breastfeeding more accepted in your area.

You could also share the kind of breastfeeding support you got from your local hospital (whether you gave birth last week, last year or last decade-- it'd be fun to get a sense of how things are, or aren't, changing). Or how your employer feels about pumping at work. Maybe you've even contributed to a milk bank, donated milk to a friend who couldn't breastfeed, or have a great story about nursing twins.

Adoptive moms, formula-feeding moms, grandmamas, childcare providers and others should feel free to jump in too. What's the situation like in your area-- are people pro-bf'ing, neutral, against? Do you actually see people bf'ing in your town? Everyone who has ever been a caregiver of an infant has at least heard *something* about breastfeeding and been given different amounts of support related to their decisions.
