Yikes, women have breastfeeding their children since the beginning of time. I'm not saying all women MUST breastfeed, but it should be done more often. The reason it isn't is that women are working more and don't have time to sit down and bust out a boob for 15 minutes.

And some women can't. No matter how hard they try. My wife was heartbroken when she couldn't nurse our twins. In house lactation consultants on our dime, pumping, supplemental nursing systems with tubes. Sometimes I wish that all the hippie shithead "earth mothers" who made my wife feel like crap over it would get diarrhea.

Same story here. I wound up throwing one of the "lactation nurses" out of my wifes room in the hospital.

Bloomberg needs to take a long walk off a short plank.

 

As far as breast feeding, its totally up to the mother, but I'm a strong believer in doing it the first couple of days when the kid is fresh from the oven. Its colostrum, and it has the highest concentration of everything healthy, and includes anti-bodies. Can't really go wrong with it, at least for a couple of days.

Most assuredly on all counts here. Extremes on both sides...

+1. With my wife, nothing was coming out as hard as she tried and the lactation consultant made her feel like a piece of garbage. I didn't see her again after that...
