Attachment Parenting (Mom-to-Mom #7)

Today’s Mom-to-Mom question is more of a Parent-to-Parent question because I received the following from Abel of Parent Wonder:

Breastfeeding Quote from “The Other Boleyn Girl”

I’m reading the historical novel The Other Boleyn Girl by Philippa Gregory. Being set in the English royal court in the 1500s it’s not exactly breastfeeding-friendly, but this passage charmed me:
