[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]With breastfeeding, people's results vary. The payment is up front (first weeks and months) and [b]the benefits come later. [/b] I agree with the advice to try first. In traditional societies when breastfeeding worked, it was due to robust direct support (aunts, sisters, friends, etc). In our society this support comes from lactation consultants and breastfeeding groups, like the one at the Breastfeeding Center. I wouldn't abandon it until you've gotten support and advice first. [/quote] What were the benefits? I didn't breastfeed at all. I didn't feel guilty about it so the decision wasn't hard for me. It seems like my friends who did breastfeed did it because they said they would feel guilty if they didn't. What benefits did you see? Just curious.[/quote]
