After class yesterday, I could not stop thinking about the !Kung women’s view on pregnancy and breastfeeding. I wanted to know if this was something representative of other hunter-gatherer communities. So I began the google search for methods on childcare especially in utero – two years old. First, I wanted to establish information about why the mothers accept pregnancy and benefits of breastfeeding after the child is born. I found this blogpost from a Yoruban woman living in NYC as a doula and I hope this explains where I aim to go with this concept. Ellen Branch
