Broke my heart when I saw it this morning...I want to go there and feed all those precious babies...what a strong powerful picture.

That bought tears to my eyes, the pain in the mothers face but she still carries on for her baby.

This is a timely reminder of how important it is to encourage and support bfing in developing countries, where disasters like this have serious health implications for babies and toddlers. This mum is providing her toddler with exactly what he needs, both in terms of nutrition and comfort, during such a difficult time.

Just imagine what it must be like for those struggling to find clean water to make up formula for their babies. Now that must be truly heartbreaking.

That's a photo full of mixed emotions isn't it? Such a wonderful thing she is doing for her son yet so sad when you see the circumstances it is under.
When it all happened I was thinking exactly what you said above Jennifer. About how many bubs would be being FF and suffering because of that.
