[quote=Anonymous]Ugh I’m kidding but I did see some interesting conversation brewing regarding breastfeeding or not and when I finally found the article I was looking for, the post is gone. Coincidence? Haha.

First, I hope every mother has the support love and freedom to choose what is best for her and her child, fed is best. I am about to starting weaning my four month old for personal health reasons, and it’s been hard to make that decision and not feel terrible but I know given my situation, it’s what is best for us. And as it’s our body, our choice, any reason should be justified, the below is not an argument for, but rather big industry is scary and I want to push back and make sure this information is spread far and wide.

There are powerful corporations pouring millions of dollars in the US alone into marketing of formula and formula promoting research.
