[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is so ridiculous.  I'm the OP.  I was not asking this question to flame or incite the boards.  Yes I plan on breast feeding, and no I do not believe that breast milk is non-vegan.  Veganism is a philosophy that you avoid encouraging animal suffering by not eating animals or wearing animal products.  Once this baby is born and is able to eat solid foods, I do not plan on feeding him meat, eggs, or milk.  I don' t think that is so unreasonable, and I absolutely plan on making sure he has a healthy, well-rounded diet, hence my question about pediatricians in the area that can give me information and support.

Sorry you dealt with such ridiculousness. You sound amazing. I too am a vegan mother than breastfed two children. While my children are not vegan (3 and 9 months due to a plethora of reasons I won't get into here), you sound like you know what you're doing and you're going to be safe and healthy. Best of luck to you. Wish I could help with a pedi recommendation. [/quote]
