Angelina Jolie Takes Breastfeeding Center Stage

Let me start off by saying, where does Angelina Jolie get the energy to run around with all those kids and look so good all the time?  She just had twins a couple of months ago, and already she has resumed her position as the queen of magazine covers.  She looked fantastic all dolled up on the cover of Star Magazine (in spite of their tummy tuck claim), and looks just as stunning all dressed down on the cover of this month’s W magazine. It’s so unfair (*sigh*) but good for her!

Apparently, the W cover is causing a little controversy due to the fact that Angelina is breastfeeding, but I think it’s great that she’s at least helping start a conversation about public breastfeeding.  It’s inspired me to do a run-down of great breastfeeding gear:

Evenflo Elan Complete Automatic Dual Breast Pump System: This breast pump system even comes with a picture frame, so Angelina can look at a photo of her brood every time she wants to pump and store milk.

Baby Nursing Swimsuit: The nursing swimsuit will come in handy at the pool or whatever tropical beach Angelina finds herself on next week.

MoBoleez Breastfeeding Bonnets: Breastfeeding bonnets are a great alternative for moms who don’t want to lug around a nursing blanket.  I could see this bonnet being ideal for moms who travel as much as Angelina.

Even More Babies for the Brangelina Family?

We’re very accustom to how quickly Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt extend their family, especially when the three well-known adoptions (Maddox, Pax and Zahara) and their daughter Shiloh come to mind. You may have already read all of the headlines about their newborn twins Vivienne and Knox, but have you heard that Brangelina are now considering adopting a Chinese baby (I know what you’re thinking, ‘is she starting a collection of babies from around the world?’)

People Magazine: The Twins!

The earthquake that took place in China in May this year has left tons of orphans. The concept of this has devastated Brangelina and now has them considering adopting one or two Chinese babies (two if they are siblings). I can’t imagine how hectic the Jolie-Pitt household is with so many children, but it seems they are happy with it (I still can’t believe how Brad went from having no kids to 6 kids in less than five years).

Angie has begun making calls to relief workers in China as part of her UN involvement.

So how serious is she? Well, she’s already got her hands on a couple of photos of orphaned Chinese children – you decide. I think it’s great how she is so quick to open her doors (and wallet) to those really in need.

Make sure to keep an eye out for one or two Chinese additions to the Brangelina household.
