Beautiful photos of breastfeeding mothers

On the occasion of the World Breastfeeding Week 2012 which is celebrated these days in more than 170 countries around the world, we want to show you some beautiful photos of breastfeeding mothers.

It is the best way to commemorate this week, through the beauty expressed by the tender images of mothers with their babies at the breast.

They synthesize love, complicity, refuge and fusion between mother and baby in that sublime act that is breastfeeding. Recall that the WHO recommends exclusive breastfeeding up to 6 months of the child and with complementary feeding up to 2 years.

Unfortunately they do not usually see each other very often, and it is a magical moment, so I have compiled some photos of breastfeeding mothers who have moved me for one thing or another.

I leave you with them.
