National World Breastfeeding Week is Aug. 1 – 8, 2007. This year’s theme is: “Breastfeeding: The 1st Hour – Save ONE million babies!”
Here at the Crunchy Domestic Goddess, I am holding a photo contest and giving away a pro-breastfeeding t-shirt to help celebrate and promote the event.
Please submit your favorite breastfeeding picture of yourself and your baby/babies via email (click my email link: amygeekgrl@gmail.com and it will automatically put WBWContest in the subject line. If you type the address out yourself, please note there is NO “i” in “amygeekgrl”) by Sunday, July 15. One entry (one picture) per person, please. Please note that by submitting your photo, you are giving me permission to post it on my blog at a later date.
Photos will be judged based on the following criteria:
- Relevancy to Category Topic (in this case, breastfeeding)
- Composition / Arrangement
- Focus / Sharpness
- Creativity
The 1st place winner will have the choice of receiving either an “I make milk. What’s your superpower?” t-shirt (seen above) or a “Lactivist” t-shirt.
Second and 3rd place winners will receive their choice of a “Lactivist” bumper sticker, a “My honor student was breast-fed” bumper sticker, or a “Jesus was breast-fed” bumper sticker.
All prizes are courtesy of my store – Attached At The Hip – proud to be a silver level sponsor of World Breastfeeding Week.
Winners will be announced by Friday, July 20.
Learn more about this year’s World Breastfeeding Week by visiting La Leche League.
Stumble it!

Wow….I just realized that the only picture I have of me breastfeeding is right after she was born…..so sad!! She’s 14 months now, but I bet we could still get a good picture!

I thought I left an email here, but I plan to get a better nursing pic today! My baby’s almost 21 months and is still just as precious nursing as he was just a few seconds old.
