Green eggs and boob
With apologies to Dr. Seuss
Suzanne-I-am!
Suzanne-I-am!
I can breastfeed, yes I can!
Would you breastfeed here or there?
Would you breastfeed anywhere?
I could I would here or there,
I will breastfeed anywhere.
Would you could you in the park?
Would you could you after dark?
I can breastfeed at the park,
During the day or after dark.
I can breastfeed on a boat
I can breastfeed while we float.
I can breastfeed on the floor
Stand right up and feed some more.
I can breastfeed in a car
I can breastfeed near or far.
I can breastfeed while I sleep
Never waking to count sheep.
I can breastfeed while I eat,
I can breastfeed while I tweet.
In the park, after dark!
On a boat, while we float!
On the floor, then some more!
In the car, near or far!
While I sleep, counting sheep!
When I eat, when I tweet!
I think breastfeeding’s pretty neat!
Suzanne-I-am!
Suzanne-I-am!
I will breastfeed while I can,
To do the best for my little man,
For at least a year, that is my plan.
Ohhh I love you!
I too have breastfed everywhere, so I can relate (though…not on a boat–but on an airplane a few dozen times).
Keep it up, you’re awesome! My baby girl is 13 months old, and we’re slowlllyyyy weaning her. She still goes twice a day, and I’m actually kind of dreading it, I love it so. Although, I do look forward to the day where I don’t have to do math before I drink alcoholic beverages.
I made Brandon read this and he now feels scarred and maybe a little enlightened. But where is the goat on the boat? Or the fox in the box?
This thing is like that thing.
Best new spin on Dr. Seuss I’ve read in ages!
I love your poem ! I have just started a small collection of my own “nursing rhymes” and came across yours while searching – I really enjoyed it :) x
