[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I understand OP. Duke University Hospital 1990"s. I was told continuously breast is best by the Lactation Consultant that worked the maternity wards there. I was not breast feeding, I had my reasons. Those women were ridiculously pushing. DH and nurses and doctors had to ask them to leave. Last child I switched hospitals UNC Chapel Hill no problems at all. [/quote] Funny in dc I had the opposite problem. They would feed my baby formula before getting me to breastfeed her. They were mostly pro formula! I had one good nurse who supported me. But op doesnt want to hear my story.[/quote] Your story is not relevant to this conversation. You can have been unsupported in your choice to breastfeed, and that is bad. And there can, currently, be a culture that is harmful in how it has convinced women that breastfeeding is the be all end all. Your story doesn't have to be false for ops opinion to be correct. I would expand her original statement to say that anyone giving any mom a hard time for how she chooses to feed her baby is a jerk. [/quote]
