"We&amp;#x27;ve all heard the health news that breastfeeding is not only good for babies, but moms too. And I&amp;#x27;m giving some serious props to Snooki for giving breastfeeding a go, even after previously stating how nervous she was about it. Go Snooki! I would just like to take a moment and give some serious kudos to Snooki for deciding to breastfeed her baby son, Lorenzo. After being on the fence about breastfeeding before she gave birth, even saying a few months ago that she didn&amp;#x27;t know if she could do it and that it looked so weird and &amp;quot;so painful,&amp;quot; Snooki gave in and gave it a try--with her baby&amp;#x27;s health in mind. And guess what? She loves it! Recently, she tweeted &amp;quot;I love nursing my little man!&amp;quot; So sweet, and I think it&amp;#x27;s great when celebrities take to their megaphones to promote being healthy. As someone who has nursed three baby boys, I can say honestly that it is not the easiest thing in the world, and as much of a huge proponent I am for breastfeeding and its zillions of health and happiness benefits, I&amp;#x27;m also very realistic about it and know that not every woman can keep it up (for career and health reasons). That said, giving it a try--even for a limited amount of time--as Snooki is doing, is just wonderful. Proud of you, Ms. Polizzi! Readers, have you had success breastfeeding? And, those who are not yet mamas, what are your feelings/concerns/anxieties about it? P.S. We love Betty White--guess what she says keeps her young? (No, not kale!) And, Jennie Garth spills the details on her recent weight loss."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
