Breast is best - but not for everyone  email this discussion to a friend?

I support breastfeeding.

And most women can breastfeed - but it's not a thing that comes naturally for everyone - it takes some practcing to get a professional.

But if you for one reason or another choose not to breastfeed - it doesn't make you a bad mother.

With the proper help many women would be abled to breastfeed - the lack of support for breatfeeding women are sadly one of the reasons that the rate of breatfed babies are low.

WHO recommendations are to breastfeed full time for the babys first 6 months and to breastfeed part time for the babys first 2 years.

Formula can never be better than milk produced for the baby - giving milk from a cow can't be more natural.

WHat do you think? Is there enough support for breastfeeding - or should averyone just bottlefeed?

The thing is that if you do get proper help you would almost always can breastfeed. It's better to breastfeed "part time" than not at all - and it seems like many people doesn't think that way and that is sad.

If I ever had kids I'd do everything I could to be able to breastfeed.

Regarding the WHO recommendations - they seem to be learning. :)


myLot reputation of 78/100. mammamuh (529)   ranked 109 out of 2,509 in debating  4 years ago

In Sweden they are not learning from WHO *lol*


myLot reputation of 62/100. ceci2176 (549)  4 years ago

No, but the WHO are on the right track on the issue at least. It's a start.
