No Laws in MA!?!

I found this information on the La Leche League website, regarding laws pertaining to breastfeeding in Massachusetts.

MASSACHUSETTS

The only legislation in Massachusetts regarding breastfeeding pertains to maternity patients' right to know the annual percentage of women breast-feeding upon discharge from their admitting hospitals. M.G.L Chapter 111, Section 70E Patients' and residents' rights (not produced here).

This makes me angry. I am angry because when I looked at what laws other states have regarding breastfeeding, I found that Massachusetts is seriously behind.  Other states, for example, have legislation that protect a woman's right to breastfeed in public, they exempt a breastfeeding mother from jury duty, and some states even waive sales tax on products that are designed to support breastfeeding. Other states have laws that require employers to provide a place, besides a toilet stall, to express milk, protects a breastfeeding mother from discrimination in the work place, etc. I am really shocked that Massachusetts has none of these law.

It looks like I have a new summer project.

Enough of my ranting. On to my exciting day, ha! Today was a good day. We woke up late and played with Brooke a while. Then we went over Jason's parents' house. We helped them move Jason's sister into her new apartment. The apartment is nice, but very very small, and it is not in such a good neighborhood.  Also, they have a trucking company right in their backyard. Not very nice. But it will do for her, right?

After that we went home and Jason did yardwork while I watched and played with Brooke. I nursed Brooke in bed at 5pm, and I was planning on doing schoolwork as soon as she fell asleep, but I ended up falling asleep myself! We didn't wake up until 6:30. We then went out to eat with my mom and my aunt, and I fed Brookie her solid food at the restaurant, she did very well with it! After we got home, we got Brookie in bed, and now I am workingon schoolwork.

Tomorrow we are going to meet the Minister who is going to perform the ceremony at our wedding. He is my best friend's father, so we already know him pretty well. It should be fun.

Ok, off to do some more homework. Only about 2 more weeks left, yay!

Oh, one more thing! My Great Grandmother gave me her sewing maching yay! It was made in the 1940's or 50's I think, it is like an antique! The instruction booklet shows a women on each page in a dress with an apron, and talks about how the machine will help women make and repair their husbands shirts. Talk about a blast from the past!

Ok that's all. Bye!
