[quote=Anonymous]I recently stumbled across a baby guide from the 1920s, which encourages breast feeding and giving detailed instructions for making your own formula if you in can't. What I found very interesting was, according to this book, "15 years before" its publication the reader would be "hard-pressed" to find breastfeeding moms, but the practice was making a return and had all these benefits, etc. Anecdotally I heard from a couple of women who are now on their 50s that they were DIScouraged from breastfeeding, even offering injections to stop the milk supply?? This is orthogonal to the question of which is better, but isn't it funny how there's nothing new under the sun? [/quote]
