Facebook apparently has placed a ban on breastfeeding photos and will remove photos from a user’s profile if they happen to show a little baby non-non-nomming away.  I was unaware of such a ban and quickly checked to make sure that one of my breastfeeding photos was still there and luckily, it was:
If you disagree with Facebook’s position on this, please consider joining the group “Hey, Facebook, Breastfeeding is not obscene!” and participating in the virtual nurse-in on December 27th.  The nurse-in consists of changing your profile photo for the day, to a picture of a nursing child, and adding the sentence, “Hey Facebook, breastfeeding is not obscene!†to your status message.
Please encourage your friends to join as well; send a message that nutrition and nurturing are nothing to be embarrassed about! Â None of us should feel shame for doing something so good for our babies.
For your enjoyment, please check out my other “obscene” breastfeeding photos:
