featuring my mama
seriously it couldnt really have been anyone else. She's amazing. I know some people get freaked out by breast feeding but personally i think its a very close bonding moment between mother and child.
I know if i ever have children i'd want to breastfeed them.
I wasnt breastfed when I was a kid, in fact I was honestly very nearly given up for adoption because my mum fell into serious post natal depression and back then it wasnt really recognised as a condition. so she didnt really bond with me as a baby for quite some time
Equally I find it very comforting when grown ups cant understand me, it makes me feel all warm and snuggly inside. I dont know why

Breastfeeding is a wise choice... studies demonstrate a rise in intelligence among children who have had mother's milk rather than formula. Formula's okay in a pinch, but it could never perfectly reproduce the nutrients of mother's milk.
Having said that, I get annoyed with people who, for lack of a better word, milk it. I was an early witness to the current trend of "attachment parenting," when a family friend gave her four year old daughter breast milk in public. It seemed weird in the 1980s, and it still seems strange now.
(Then again, I'm in my thirties and wear diapers recreationally, so feel free to take my opinion with a grain of salt.)

I do think breast feeding should be for the first year...possibly the 2nd and then that's it really. there was a program on tv recently about an 11 year old girl breastfeeding. surly that must open her up to a whole heap of ridicule. I just don't think that's very appropriate really.
I have 2 things
1. I also agree that breast feeding is the one of the most inporten things that gather mother and child. BUT! In Denmark there are many groups of mothers breast feeding their child often strange at cafs. AND I CAN NOT TAKE IT!!! I do not know what it is but I find it so disgusting
2. FINALLY ... I've waited a long time and see who the mother is. Sometimes I wish that I showed who my parents are. But my foster family has told me that they have tried but have not found them yet.

I really only mind breastfeeding when it's being done in a very public place...like in line at a fast-food joint, or in a movie theater, or on a roller coaster. :P But seriously, it really doesn't bother me if I don't see it and often the towel over the baby really does make me completely oblivious. My only problem with folks doing that in public is that it makes *me* feel like I'm intruding somehow on what should be a private parent-child bonding moment.

I've been watching you're account for so long and yet I've never sat down and read through this comic... so totally worth the time. So many strong emotions, you can really tell a wonderful story and i can't wait to see where it goes from here, any dark turns or light hearted revaluations, I'ma stick with this from now on :3
Today you have brought a grown man (cub) to tears and made him an absolute fan of your artistic and story telling abilities.

With all the gloom and doom leading up to this I was afraid there'd be some kind of horror or at least disappointment, like Gem's mother not knowing who she was or rejecting her, but I am super happy that didn't happen. There was a lot of build-up to this moment, and now here it is. It's wonderful and beautiful. Gemma had no memory of her mother -- I wonder if she will now? Has all of this daycare dream stuff just been Gemma's subconscious working toward getting at those memories? If so, what happens next? I have a different idea of what might be happening than I used to have, but I still don't know if it's right.
I know it seems strange cause ppl not used to seeing it, I think if possible it is good to breast feed a child.
It so great to see lil Gem happy, brought a happy tear to me. :3
Tho I am curious. What happened to Gem, did she have a mom for a while and something
happen to her to be put in a orphanage?
I think some of it is repressed/forgotten memory.

This is very sweet, and a great moment. No one should get upset about breastfeeding, because it is how mothers have fed their babies from the dawn of time. If anything people should consider a bottle to be the most taboo way because people have only been using a bottle as a breast substitute for maybe 100 years or so, when you compare that to the rest of the time we have existed on this planet, that is a blink of an eye.
