As a mother who spent a total of 32 months of her life breastfeeding two children, I’m a huge advocate of all of the advantages of breast milk over formula (see “101 Reasons to Breastfeed Your Child”). Being a nursing mother comes with its share of logistical challenges: You need different bras, you have to learn how to treat thrush and you must cope with department-store employees who frown at you for nursing in the fitting rooms. (Really, would they prefer to have a woman bare her breast in the aisles between the racks of clothes?) I would have loved having resources like La Leche League International’s “Breastfeeding Answers” page, which addresses everything from allergies and colic to feeding frequency and how to nurse twins. BreastFeeding.com is a friendly, upbeat site with a community link, where you can visit online with other nursing mothers; live “Ask a Lactation Consultant” sessions; and the more gossipy “Breastfeeding Celebrities: Who Is, Who Isn’t?” Much drier, but with tons of accurate information, is the Center for Disease Control’s site on breastfeeding. The always-reliable Babycenter.com has breastfeeding videos, including the best nursing positions and problems and how to handle them. If you’re trying to keep track of how many times you’ve breastfed or when you last pumped, try BabbleSoft’s Baby Insights software, which is particularly useful when you have a newborn and need to be able to tell the pediatrician how often baby is nursing. Moms have better fashion options nowadays, too. Glamourmom sells clever nursing bra/tank tops – like the apple-green tank ($29; pictured) — that allow you to discreetly nurse your baby while still wearing something modern and cute. Expressiva Nursingwear carries stylish dresses designed for nursing, such as this pretty flower-print shrug dress ($59) with two hidden nursing openings. This Moroccan-style top is made from rayon and spandex, for a soft and stretchy feel ($37). Then there’s the amusing “I make milk, what’s your superpower?” long-sleeved T-shirt ($36).
