[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yeah, it's not a focus on infants that's the problem. It's our terrible healthcare system. [/quote] I'm not so sure. They put a ton of resources into promoting breastfeeding, which has negligible if any benefits. The protocols developed by Canada to prevent pre-eclampsia wouldn't take that much money; just the organization/political will to do it. [/quote] I disagree that there are a ton of resources promoting breastfeeding. I'm a new mom struggling with breastfeeding and I'm struggling to get support. The hospital provided minimal service (and before my milk even came in with no follow up) and LCs are expensive. I went to a support group at the hospital but there were too many people there to get any specific guidance. Also, it's really tough to continue breastfeeding with a lack of paid maternity leave. Now Congress wants to get rid of the ACA mandates related to breastfeeding. [/quote]
