The World Alliance for Breastfeeding Action arm in Malaysia has an interesting press release here, and is promoting the global flash mob to promote breastfeeding, especially among the youth. Entitled "Feed the Future," this may be one of the most exciting flash mob dances to look out for yet! (I wonder if we are going to do this in the Philippines! hehe)

Meanwhile, if you are a new breastfeeding mom, this prayer may be just what you need at this time. (You can read the original version here.)

Prayer for Nursing
By Elisheva S. Urbas
By Elisheva S. Urbas
God of our mothers, Sarah, Rivkah, Rachel, and Leah, You remembered me when I longed for this child and in the pain of labor, and You have brought me, rejoicing, to hold this infant in my arms. Now I turn to You again, hoping to feed this child as You feed all living creatures, out of Your boundless lovingkindness; and I trust in you, that in Your goodness You surely will not let my child lack sustenance, neither now nor ever, for the sake of Your great Name. Let any pain that I may feel as I nurse this child be submerged in my joy as I watch the miracle of my flourishing baby; and keep us from any misfortune that may cause suffering to my child or to me between now and the time that my child is safely weaned. May Your goodness teach me to help my child grow both now in my arms and in all the years You grant us together. For you are the God who has always given me good things. Blessed are You, God, who sustains all. Amen.
Our Lady of La Leche, pray for us!
