So ends a comment by Sky Boucher, whose tandem breastfeeding selfie “Tea for Two” (Figure 1) went viral in early 2014. Boucher’s comments, which emerged in response to the barrage of both criticism and acclaim elicited by this selfie, suggest that breastfeeding selfies occupy a liminal space and, as such, are not easily integrated into the conventions of selfie culture. Nevertheless, they are also understood by their creators as powerful sites of self-making and community building. In this essay, we examine the politics and production of breastfeeding selfies. We argue that the breastfeeding selfie’s political potential resides at the juncture between sexuality and motherhood. More specifically, it forces mothers (as photographers, subjects, and audience members) and viewers to confront a thorny question: How can one articulate a virtuous maternal self through the lens of what has been broadly understood, within the mainstream media, as a profoundly narcissistic genre? And further, how might breastfeeding—that iconic, embodied practice of motherhood—trouble the very idea of the selfie? To ask these questions, we draw on the notions of socially mediated publicness (Baym & boyd, 2012), microcelebrity (Marwick & boyd, 2011), and networked publics (boyd, 2011).

Approximately eighty percent of Internet users search for health information online, and surveys indicate that the Internet now rivals physicians as the most common source of health advice. 1 The Internet is also a place where information can be spread quickly and easily. Information is available in many venues, including user-generated Internet forums. Parenting forums are good places for information to spread quickly because of highly dedicated readership and personal connections made on the forums between parents.

Tandem breastfeeding (TBF) is feeding two children of different ages at the same time. The knowledge about the composition of human milk in prolonged lactation is still scarce. Milk from tandem breastfeeding women and after weaning was examined. Milk samples were collected from 13 TBF mothers. A 24-h milk Citation: Sinkiewicz-Darol, E.; collection was done.

  • Exploring the Experiences of Women Who Breastfeed Long-Term
    EXPLORING THE EXPERIENCES OF WOMEN WHO BREASTFEED LONG-TERM Sally Jane Dowling A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the University of the West of England, Bristol for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Faculty of Health and Applied Sciences University of the West of England, Bristol September 2013 This copy has been supplied on the understanding that it is copyright material and that no quotation from the thesis may be published without proper acknowledgement Acknowledgements My life has been changed in many ways by my experiences of breastfeeding all three of my daughters. The journey that culminates with this PhD began with those three very different experiences and it is dedicated to them, my lovely girls. Breastfeeding the younger two and then undertaking the PhD that grew from that experience would not have been possible without the constant and loving support and patience of Mick. I cannot thank him enough for both of those things. In more recent times the support he has given me to reach the end of this process, both practical and emotional, has been invaluable. My excellent supervision team – Jane Powell, David Pontin and Jennie Naidoo – have been constant in their belief in my abilities and always generous in their support and encouragement. In particular I would like to thank Jane for her interest in me at the beginning, and persistence and faith during the last few months of the work; David for believing in me and making it all possible at the very beginning and Jennie for her support and eye for detail.

  • Introduction
    INTRODUCTION Starbucks, 14th arrondissement, Paris: I have arranged to meet a woman called Caroline. I am hoping she might be able to offer a few point- ers on my proposed study of infant feeding practices, comparing rates of breastfeeding and formula feeding in London and Paris. She is a ‘breastfeeding counsellor’ with whom I have been put in touch by a woman in my language class, who described her as ‘the person you need to see in Paris – she knows everything there is to know about breastfeeding’. Naively, I do not approach the meeting as ‘fi eldwork’. Rather, I see Caroline as a potential gatekeeper (to the gatekeepers) to potential participants in my research. A tall, slim, well-groomed woman walks into the café. She is talk- ing to a child in school uniform. I recognise her voice, with its Ameri- can accent, from our phone call, but since she had mentioned she would be bringing her (breastfeeding) son with her, I hesitate – I had been waiting for a woman with a baby. I approach them as they are in the queue, discussing whether the child can have a chocolate dough- nut (his preference) or a bran muffi n (hers). I introduce myself, re- lieved to have found the right person, and we take a seat upstairs. In the course of the next hour, Caroline bombards me with statis- tics. ‘Did you know that 67 per cent of women in France have epi- durals with their fi rst baby? And 47 per cent with their second? Or that there is an 80 per cent episiotomy rate, and 30 per cent C-section rate? They are very into medicalised birthing here.

  • The Care and Feeding of Myths: Breastfeeding and Weight | Psychology Today
    9/27/2017 The Care and Feeding of Myths: Breastfeeding and Weight | Psychology Today Sylvia R. Karasu M.D. The Gravity of Weight The Care and Feeding of Myths: Breastfeeding and Weight Separating out science from fiction in breastfeeding research Like 13 on obesity Posted Feb 15, 2016 The origin of our Milky Way began with a reluctant breastfeeding. Or so the Greco­Roman myth goes, as described in an ancient Byzantine text Geoponica: the god Jupiter had an illicit affair with a mortal and wished his offspring Hercules to obtain immortal powers. To bring this about, Jupiter gave the infant to nurse at the breast of his sleeping goddess wife Juno, but when Juno awakened, she became furious and violently pulled her breast away, only to have her milk spill out across the sky and form the Milky Way. This myth is itself immortalized in two paintings, the 1575 painting by Tintoretto that hangs in the National Gallery in London, and the Rubens painting (1636­38) hanging in the Prado Museum in Madrid. Of course, for a more scientific version of the origin of the Milky Way, see Lisa Randall’s 2015 book Dark Matter and the Dinosaurs. Madonna Litta, Attributed to Leonardo da Vinci, circa 1490, Some of the myths surrounding breastfeeding, Hermitage Museum, St. Petersburg though, may be just as fanciful as our Milky Way Source: Wikimediacommons.org/Public Domain saga. In her new book Lactivism, Courtney Jung writes of the “moral righteousness” that has enveloped breastfeeding, “Breastfeeding is no https://www.psychologytoday.com/blog/the-gravity-weight/201602/the-care-and-feeding-myths-breastfeeding-and-weight 1/6 9/27/2017 The Care and Feeding of Myths: Breastfeeding and Weight | Psychology Today longer just a way to feed a baby; it is a moral marker that distinguishes us from them—good parents from bad.” It has become a “talisman to ward off evil.” It is in this present climate that breastfeeding and the commodity of breast milk specifically have been endowed with “super,” almost immortal powers.
