Join the Milk Mama Diaries Carnival for July

July is Nutrition Month!  For this year, the National Nutrition Council - Department of Health has decided that the theme will be "Isulong ang Breastfeeding - Tama, Sapat at EKsklusibo!" So what could be a more apt topic for this month's carnival but this?!
Breastfeeding has been receiving a lot of bad press lately from torture to bad advice to wrong help from professionals.  However, we all know how beneficial breastfeeding is to both mom and baby.  We really need to promote and spread the word about breastfeeding and its benefits.  For this month, please share about your experiences on how you were able to promote breastfeeding or how you think breastfeeding should be promoted in this country to increase breastfeeding rates and encourage more moms to breastfeed.
Read my May Carnival post to get an idea on how a blog carnival post looks like.  To join the carnival, please fill up this FORM.   Please include this short blurb on the top of your post: "Welcome to the Milk Mama Diaries Carnival (July).  For this month, we join the National Nutrition Council - Department of Health in celebrating Nutrition Month with the theme "Isulong ang Breastfeeding - Tama, Sapat at EKsklusibo!" Participants will share their experiences in promoting breastfeeding or their tips on how breastfeeding should be promoted.  Please scroll down to the end of this post and check out the other carnival participants."
