News Videos on Chinese Policewoman

I found a couple more articles on the Chinese Policewoman who saved the orphaned infants after the earthquake by nursing them. 

These links have good news videos

timesofmalta.com - news video


I found it very interesting how CNN covered the story without showing any breastfeeding whatsoever, in fact she seemed to be kept covered up as much as possible.  Interesting cultural difference we have here in America.  

I had originally posted this story to TheLactivist as a comment and she made it a blog post as well.

This amazing story also goes against the theory of "youre not making enough milk" that people who are more comfortable with bottles say to breastfeeding mommys when the baby's nursing demand is different than a bottle schedule.  She was able to make enough milk for 9 babies at one point plus her own.  Thats a lot of milk.  Right there when she needed it.

So there you go. 

So, I guess they're less like milk jugs and more like milk wells.
