Behold: The Boobtastic MONTAGE!
Behold, Boob Ninjas and Friends, THE MONTAGE.
That's you - US - are, in all of our breastastic, maternal glory. Watch and enjoy.
What's next? Your mission, should you choose to accept it - spread the word. Evangelize the montage!
How?
1) View it (obviously). Then, view it again.
2) View it on YouTube. Vote for it on YouTube. Tell all your friends to vote for it on YouTube.
3) If you aren't nursing live or putting up your own video on 10/10 at 10am (Wednesday - Breast Fest Day), consider putting this montage up on your blog on Wednesday.
We'll be working on a blogroll of participants who shared their pictures for feature in the montage, and we'll add to our Breast Friends blogroll anyone who posts the montage on their blog (let us know if you do!).
If you've got a Facebook, Cre8Buzz account and/or any other social networking account, please embed the video in your profile as well as on the breastfeeding protest page (or at least, put the link up). And, if you're really committed to the cause, you could Digg it, or Sk*rt it, or spread the word in any other creative way that you can think of!
And in preparation for Wednesday, please let us know what you'll be doing.
1) Nursing Live?
2) Putting up your own video?
3) Posting the montage?
4) Putting your own pics up?
5) Putting up our button and sending folks to our site?
Your support has been and continues to be amazing. Let's keep the momentum strong until Breast Fest - and beyond!
beautiful job putting that together

Excellent! Love the slideshow. Had me crying like a baby. How can anyone call that obscene? It's beautiful. I'm glad my photo made it in. I was part of The Queen of Spain's Tit Brigade but hadn't gotten around to sending it to you. I'm a slacker, you know?

Fabulous job! I just posted the link to this site and put the video up on my blog. So excited I got to participate!!

I'll post this montage. One question though...it seems a little grainy/fuzzy. Is anyone else seeing it that way?
Posted by: Andi | October 08, 2007 at 02:35 PM
That was gorgeous! I couldn't stop crying. So sweet. I will be posting this on my blog. And yes, Andi, it is a smidge fuzzy for me too. Oh well.

Great video!
On Wednesday I'll do 3, 4, 5.
By the way, one of my favorite things to do for moms is to take a picture of them breastfeeding. (I always ask first.) So many moms don't have any pictures of this special time in their lives, and are usually very happy that somebody thinks what they're doing is special enough to warrant a photo. Just think of how wonderful these photos will be when our kids are old enough to have kids of their own.

Hiya, had to post it already, am going to be insanely busy tomorrow and the timed posting won't work for me today, so I am officially well ahead of the game due to our time difference as well!
You guys have done a great job.
Posted by: Kate | October 08, 2007 at 08:32 PM
That was incredible. You are incredible.
I wish I had photos when I breastfed my son! Sniff.
Will gladly do #3 & #5 on Wednesday!!!

That was a totally awesome piece of awesomely awesome awesomeness. (And I'm glad to see that Slackermommy cried, because otherwise I might have been too wussy to admit it made me a little teary-eyed, too. How CAN people think this is obscene? Ugh.)

Have put the montage up - will stay a sticky until Thursday! Am happy to say THREE of my pictures are included and am swelling with pride (or mastitis.. No. No it's definitely pride!)
Possibly consider uploading it to Vimeo.com too - I've heard they have slightly better quality - plus the more places the better, right? Just a suggestion :D

Boooobalicious montage!
On a serious note, it did bring a tear to my eye, the wee babies and the nursing mommies. Very, very sweet.
xoxo

Wonderful. I'll be posting pix on Wednesday because it's food, people, not obscenity!
Posted by: Ms. Huis Herself | October 09, 2007 at 02:13 PM
Have posted the montage here (http://the-looney-bin.blogspot.com/2007/10/flashing-people-in-name-of-food.html)
and have also had the button up for several days. Have also viewed the video several times and am in it (TWICE! woo-hoo!) and have been watching HBM try not to kill trolly commenters. :)

LMJ rocks! I have no babies to nurse so I can't join the nurse-in tomorrow, but count me in for posting the montage and a button and a list of all the places I have nursed in public.
Posted by: mayberry | October 09, 2007 at 10:48 PM
I've posted pics of me and my daughter, added a button and link last week and a link today, too. I also added a link from the Wordless Wednesday meme. It might be a good way to get others noticing the action.

Hi! I wrote a post about my breastfeeding experience and included the montage video.
I also put your button in my sidebar.
Rock on, boob ninjas!

Just uploaded video to my YouTube. Had to use my cell phone's video capabilities - dealing with a harddrive crash on my primary computer so my hands are rather full and that was the only way to transfer video (and no clue where my webcam went). Haven't had time to blog for the last several days because of the issues on the other computer but I will try to do so today and embed the video there.
URL to my video is:
