UpSpring Baby is a passionate advocate for breastfeeding and we believe moms who choose to breastfeed their babies deserve all the support and encouragement they can get.

Since August is National Breastfeeding Awarness Month and August 1-7 is World Breastfeeding Week, I’m collecting the best links I can find from around the web and adding them to this post.
