A little boob humor to pick up you breastfeeding mamas!
according to "If these boobs could talk" by S. Seip & A. Hedger:
1. Since when are we open twenty-four hours?
2. Get the soothing gel. Get it now.
3. Sir, this is a "Babies Only" zone.
4. Kid, how can you not see our nipples when they're the size of paper plates?
5. Woo Hoo! We're spraying across the room!
6. Wow, we look spectacular!
7. Wait, now we look like old gym socks.
8. Hmmm, do we hear a baby crying somewh....and there's the milk.
9. Hey, we dont get paid enough to work this hard.
10. Oh great. A tooth.
About Me
- Nizo Wear
- Admit it. Most nursing bras are kind of industrial-looking. At least that is what I thought when I was shopping around for a nursing bra. I also found that while breastfeeding is natural and wonderful, it is also difficult and complex and sometimes it really hurts! The best advice I could find was to use warm compresses before nursing and cold compresses afterwards. But nobody could give me any tips for how to make the whole compress thing practical or COMFORTABLE! So, my design was patented and Nizo Wear was born. I firgured while I was at it I should make them pretty as well. Nizo Wear makes nursing bras that are de both functional and pretty. Lace and rhinestones, playful prints, shapely lines, all designed to help you feel stylish and good again.

7 ways to lower her risk of breast cancer!
Research shows that breastfeeding lowers the mother's risk of breast cancer. Here are 6 other musts for every woman to lower her risk of breast cancer (according to Woman's Day magazine October 2010).
1. Stay a healthy weight.
Research shows that postmenopausal women who are obese are 1.5 times as likely to develop breast cancer.
2. Exercise.
The National Cancer Institute shows that exercising four or more hours a week can decrease estrogen levels and in turn help lower breast cancer risk.
3. Limit alcohol.
Limit yourself to no more than one alcoholic beverage a day. The more you consume, the greater the danger.
4. Know your family history.
If your mother, grandmother or maternal aunt developed breast cancer at age 50 or earlier, you may carry the gene BRCA1 or BRCA2, which can place your lifetime risk of breast cancer at 60% (and your risk of ovarian cancer at 15-40%)
5. Eat Healthy.
Diet rich in fruits, vegetables, fish, olive oil, whole grains and legumes is linked to a reduced risk of breast cancer in postmenopausal women.
6. Check your D levels.
Research shows women who got a lot of vitamin D from diet, supplements or spending time out doors were 25-50% less likely to develop breast cancer than those with lower levels.
