Another celebrity fan, in the paper and a toddler review

I have been a bit slack on the old blog front but I am back!

My first bit of exciting news is that I have another confirmed celeb fan. I happen to know there are several more too but unfortunately without a quote I can't mention them!! Anyway, Leah Wood (daughter of Rolling Stone Ronnie, actress and model) and mum to Maggie has said "I love my Mamascarf, it's great! I use it virtually all of the time". Thanks Leah, I love you too!!

My other news is that I was featured in the Sun newspaper, in an article following the supposed "expert" claims that the benefits of breastfeeding were overhyped. The link to the article is below. I was asked to comment on my views on public breastfeeding and the support that women receive from health professionals.

And finally I am delighted to share that Mamascarf received a fantastic independent review for feeding a toddler. Now it is probably no surprise that most of my customers are either pregnant women or women with young babies who are concerned about breastfeeding in public. So when I was contacted by a lovely lady (via Twitter) who wanted to review it on her toddler I was surprised... pleasantly surprised as Natalie and Sophie gave Mamascarf a big thumbs up after giving it a thorough road test. You can see the review on her blog here and there is a picture of her using her breastfeeding cover in a cafe above.

Celebrity breastfeeding mums love Mamascarf!

I am really excited as I now have a celebrity following(of 2)! I have received a lovely comment from Melanie C (ex Spice Girl) about her Mamascarf (go to the feedback page to see it). Mamascarf is perfect for celebrity mums wanting a bit of privacy for public feeds. I would imagine you would want to be ultra discreet if you were followed around by the press.

As if this was not enough, the same day I had an email from another celeb's agent (not sure if I can say who yet). She had received a Mamascarf at the Baby Show and her agent said she loved it and yes she would like another one in a different colour!! Yay! Now I just need to get them papped using them.

I think it's great that celebrities are open about breastfeeding as they are positive role models and people really do look up to them.
