ALL moms deserve to make a truly informed feeding decision and to be cheered on, coached and celebrated without pressure, judgment or guilt.ALL breastfeeding moms deserve full institutional and cultural support to achieve their personal breastfeeding goals.
What do I love about this advertisement and Best for Babes Foundation? They don’t use any scare tactics. None. According to co-founder Bettina Forbes,
Most moms want to breastfeed, and don’t realize how they are being undermined by the very institutions that should be helping them. Whether they breastfeed for 2 weeks, 2 months, 2 years or not at all, they deserve to achieve their personal goals. We’re clearing through the information clutter–much of it misleading–and are showing them how to succeed and who they can trust, much like a personal trainer or nutritionist would for someone who wants to get fit.

I'm so glad there's something out there like this. I tried breast feeding and lasted about 5 months. I hated the pressure I got from others when I quit. It was like I was quitting school or something.

i LOVE all of their ads!! So creative yet still so modest
I love that ad! My little guy is still nursing at 16 months. I'm ready to wean (I've been pregnant or nursing for the last 6 years with my youngest 3) but he is so not ready. I'll keep going until he is ready to stop. Stopping by from SITS!
I love Best for Babes. I have them up on my own website. And I am so glad I found your blog through SITS!
I love this! Thank you for sharing, I have added them to FB, twitter! I love their ads, and their mottos
