AAB 115 Breastfeeding Lori continues her tour of breastfeeding practices around the world

A few things have happened since I began doing some research for this seasons Tour of the world of breastfeeding.  I wanted to be able to take my listeners on a tour, if you will of breastfeeding around the globe from ancient to current times.  I knew that  I would be covering times when babies were wet nursed and cross nursed.  I knew that  I would be covering times when babies were removed from their biological mothers arms and given to other woman to nourish them.  I knew that there were times in history when wet nurses were just your average citizen, some were paid very well and others average to even low wages.  I knew there were historical times and places where they moved from their home to live in nice homes of their employer and times when they were so revered they were treated like royalty.
