AN ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION OF JONNA JO ZINIEL, for the Doctor of Philosophy degree in SPEECH COMMUNICATION, presented on March 9, 2012, at Southern Illinois University Carbondale. TITLE: YOU CAN BREASTFEED BUT . : A RHETORICAL ANALYSIS OF IMAGES AND COMMENTARY ON BREASTFEEDING MAJOR PROFESSOR: Dr. Suzanne M. Daughton This dissertation is a study of breastfeeding images and the commentary about those images, from a rhetorical perspective. Specifically, I use a feminist lens in order to analyze images of breastfeeding in both magazine and online environments, as well as online commentary about the images. I examine both celebrity and non-celebrity images of breastfeeding from popular pregnancy and parenting magazines, non-traditional parenting magazines, company web sites, and online articles and blog sites. Chapter one presents a statement of purpose, research questions, and an examination of the current literature pertinent to the study including sections on breastfeeding benefits, the sexualized woman’s body and desexualized mother, and visual rhetoric. Chapter two explains the method for analysis of the study, namely, a feminist rhetorical critique of popular culture images of breastfeeding, informed by my own experiences as a nursing mother. Chapter three is the first chapter of analysis. For this chapter, I collected images of breastfeeding across a six-month time period from the popular magazines: American Baby, Baby Talk, Fit Pregnancy, and Pregnancy. I also examined images from the same time span from magazines that had lower circulation rates, but focused on natural "! ! ! parenting: Mothering and New Beginnings. Finally, I examined several online websites that sold nursing bras and breast pumps. Major categories of investigation included location of the mother and child, race, and the amount of breast displayed in the images. In chapter four, I looked at images of celebrity women breastfeeding, specifically Miranda Kerr, Angelina Jolie, Maggie Gyllenhaal, Julie Bowen, and Salma Hayek. I performed searches for key terms for each of these images and analyzed articles and comments that reacted to the images. Included in this chapter is a discussion of what an audience of breastfeeding sees as “public” and “private,” as well as how images of celebrities can assist in encouraging breastfeeding. In chapter five I examined images of non-celebrity mothers breastfeeding, analyzing images and reactions to three YouTube videos. The chapter also included analysis of images of a nurse-in at an Arizona McDonald’s, as well as articles and online comments about the event. The chapter’s analysis includes an examination of how non-celebrity images differ from the celebrity images. Chapter six includes implications of the study, limitations, and suggestions for future studies. ""! ! ! ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Taking on a project like a dissertation can be an extremely daunting task for anyone. I took a very long road to completion, and an almost 10 year project is touched and influenced by many people. I hope to mention and acknowledge them all, but if I forget anyone, please know that it does not mean I am not grateful for your presence! First and foremost, I would not have completed this dissertation without the assistance of my advisor. I am incredibly blessed to have someone like Dr. Suzanne Daughton in my life, and overseeing my work. For nearly a decade, she never gave up on me and always believed in me. She has been a true inspiration, not only to this project, but in my life as well. Thank you for the many, many talks and for the always wonderful, insightful, and patient advice. I credit you not only with this dissertation, but for setting me on the right paths even though I tried to choose the wrong ones. Thank you to my dissertation committee for reading early drafts and giving feedback on how to make my project stronger and more expansive. Your advice took my ideas and allowed them to grow and flourish. Dr. Bryan Crow, Dr. Rachel Griffin, Dr. Ross Singer, and Dr. Kathy Hytten: you have been wonderful and meaningful influences! Thank you to my exam committee, who read an early draft of my ideas and gave me initial directions. Thank you to my amazing husband, who has stood by me through this entire process. Thank you for reading all of my drafts, for listening to my endless talks about breastfeeding, and for saving countless numbers of unsaved work. I could not ask for a better partner to live this life with. """! ! ! To my daughter Aurora. You served as the initial inspiration for this work, and I thank you for constantly making me a better person. Thank you also for constantly running to the printer and for giving me wonderful feedback on all of my drafts and images. To my son Kyle who has given me insight on being a wonderful, and never perfect, mom. And to my daughter Zoey. Thank you for providing fresh insight and experiences! The three of you are my world, and without my experiences being your mother, and breastfeeding all of you, I would not be the person I am today. Thank you to my sister, Brittani, for being a source of support and encouragement. Thank you to my mom, Barb, for never understanding what I do or what I am writing about . but always believing that it is something real and something good. To my cousin Heather for nodding your head at me at all of the appropriate moments. Thank you to my friends and colleagues at VCSU for supporting me through this process. A special thanks to Dr. Shannon VanHorn, for helping me every step of the way. I truly could not have completed this without you.

Thank you for always having exactly what I need in that magic purse of yours! Thank you Dr. Deanna Sellnow. Almost 15 years ago you took a very confused and unmotivated graduate student under your wing. You guided me to teaching (even though I was kicking and screaming the whole way), and you taught me how to not only teach, but to love teaching. And then you asked the ultimate question while I dithered with what to do after my Master’s, “What else do you have to do for the next five years?” Thank you for finding “me” and believing in me during the times I did not believe in myself. Thank you to the following people and companies who allowed me to reprint their images within this dissertation: Bella Materna, Boppy, Mothering, New Beginnings, Pregnancy, La Leche League International, Expressiva Nursingwaer, Miranda Kerr, and Jennie. A special thanks to the editorial staff at New Beginnings for all of their assistance. Last, but not least, thank you Judy Masucci (owener of A Mother’s Boutique) for all of her help in finding contacts, information, and most of all for supporting me during my breastfeeding adventures! Finally, a special thank you to my aunt, Evonne, who I lost during my journey to complete this project. I know you are looking down on me during this time and smiling and cheering me on. Thank you for your wisdom, guidance, and love. #! ! !

    International Journal of Communication 9(2015), Feature 1759–1774 1932–8036/2015FEA0002 Virtual Lactivism: Breastfeeding Selfies and the Performance of Motherhood SONJA BOON Memorial University, Canada BETH PENTNEY Nipissing University and Acadia University, Canada Keywords: breastfeeding, publics, selfies, microcelebrity Figure 1. Tea for Two (Boucher, 2014a). Reprinted with permission. Copyright © 2015 (Sonja Boon, [email protected]; Beth Pentney, [email protected] ). Licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution Non-commercial No Derivatives (by-nc-nd). Available at http://ijoc.org. 1760 Sonja Boon & Beth Pentney International Journal of Communication 9(2015) “I posted an picture of my body that ‘no one wanted to see’ and if the urge strikes, so should you” (Boucher, 2014c, para. 14). 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).

  • BREASTFEEDING Q. Why Should I Breastfeed? A. Breast Mild Provides Perfectly Balanced Nutrition for Your Baby and Is Ideally Su
    BREASTFEEDING Q. Why should I breastfeed? A. Breast mild provides perfectly balanced nutrition for your baby and is ideally suited for a baby’s immature digestive system. Your breast milk also provides your baby with important immune resistance to allergens and illnesses. Breastfeeding benefits you also by causing the uterus to contract to the pre-pregnancy size more quickly and be producing the hormone prolactin, which stimulates relaxation. Q. What is my nipples become sore or cracked? A. Correct your baby’s latch on for proper sucking, keep your nipples dry, wear a good fitting nursing bra and nurse more frequently (which is the opposite of what you want to do), and alternate nursing positions. Also, massage your breasts, and avoid using soap on your nipples. Products to soothe and help heal sore, chapped or cracked nipples are available. Q. How do I know if my nursing bra is right? A. A properly fit nursing bra helps support your breasts. A bra cup that is too tight, or that has no give, can constrict the milk ducts causing mastitis and discomfort. Our certified fitters can assist you in finding the right fit for you. Q. How do I know if my flange on my breast pump is fitting correctly or if I need a bigger size. A. Your WHBaby Breast Pump comes with two flange sizes. Using the silicone flange cover it is 24 mm. Without the silicone flange cover it is 27 mm. We also have a 30 mm large pumping kit if needed. Here is a link for how to measure for proper flange fitting.

  • Requirements to Justify Breastfeeding in Public: a Philosophical Analysis Fiona Woollard
    Woollard International Breastfeeding Journal (2019) 14:26 https://doi.org/10.1186/s13006-019-0217-x DEBATE Open Access Requirements to justify breastfeeding in public: a philosophical analysis Fiona Woollard Abstract Background: It may be tempting for breastfeeding advocates to respond to challenges of breastfeeding older children or breastfeeding in public, by pointing out the nutritional or developmental benefits of breastfeeding, or by noting that breastfeeding is often extremely discreet. Such responses may concede more than they should: by focusing on rebutting the empirical claim, breastfeeding supporters may end up implicitly accepting two presuppositions about breastfeeding. First, the presupposition that breastfeeding requires justification in terms of health or developmental benefits to the child, and second, the presupposition that breastfeeding in public is only acceptable if assumed standards of discretion are met. Discussion: This paper aims to use the methods of analytic philosophy to: (a) show how, if left unchallenged, these implicit assumptions can become part of the pragmatic presuppositions of the conversation, so that the discussion proceeds taking their acceptance for granted, (b) argue that we can expect these presuppositions to have negative effects on all mothers, no matter how they feed their babies, and on the tenor of public discussion of infant feeding, (c) reconstruct the reasoning that might underlie these presuppositions and show that this reasoning is mistaken, and (d) show that recognising breastfeeding as a family way of life and a loving interaction between parent and child gives rise to a moral right to breastfeed in public without social sanction, whether one is able to breastfeed discreetly or not.
