[quote=Anonymous]New mom here. I swear the pressure to breastfeed was more difficult than actually breastfeeding. WHC is “baby friendly” meaning there is a poster everywhere you look encouraging breastfeeding. It’s shoved down our throats from every outlet these days. you didn’t have Instagram targeting you with breastfeeding accounts when you had babies. My baby was in the Nicu and I couldn’t breastfeed but still managed to get my supply going, all on my own research. I spent one hour total with LCs during my 12 days in the hospital. Now that I’m home the only way I’m able to breastfeed is having a nanny ($60k/year) and pumping (1 hour a day, which if I was paid for my time like I am at work would be $450/day). The treatment of mothers in America has to change if y’all are gonna force us into breastfeeding. [/quote]
