First poem I've written since signing Pearl & Bone off to print.

'Ankyloglossia,' about Elian's tongue tie - because did it even happen if I didn't write a poem about it?

Abortion for *lethal* fetal anomalies is now *illegal* in Ohio

I’m a high-risk obstetrician here. I diagnose birth defects

So some point soon I may look someone in the eyes & say that they, against their will, will carry to term, undergo delivery & then have their child die

Letting baby nurse on cue allows breastfeeding to get established from the beginning. Having loose routines rather than strict schedules can be helpful for parents looking to add more structure to their days.

[BFing & Feminism @BFandFem]

Yourkavitch: The literature is mixed on whether or not breast milk pumping increases breastmilk feeding duration. #BFfem18
