[quote=Anonymous]People keep disparaging societal “pressure” to breastfeed. There are good reasons medical practitioners and public health experts encourage breastfeeding. Yes, many children don’t breastfeed and are perfectly healthy. It’s not do or die. But there are good benefits to breastfeeding — even beyond possible health benefits (cost, for example) — and there was a time of way too much thinking in the opposite direction based on faulty premises (see MIL’s generation). Of course OP shouldn’t destroy her life to breastfeed, but many of these “just make it easier on yourself and ignore the ‘propaganda’ “ posters seem to be engaged in self-justification than informed reasoning.[/quote]
