::iam NOT trying to sound like a le leche freak, or post holier than thou questions::
Health reasons aside, why choose bottles over breast?
I jsut got done reading something with the world census thing, and doing a little research. America has the HIGHEST infant mortality rate of all the industrialized nations. Thats insane, and they say its because all other countries tend to have much higher rates of breastfeeding verses formula.
I think its unfair that hospitals and doctors dont provide education and support to moms. Every mom wants to provide the very best, and its not fair that commercial entities and cultural taboo's are allowed to steal the best from our children.
On top of all that, some states and counties are MAKING IT ILLEGAL to nurse in public.. WTF?!
It just bothers me that we cant provide the best.
People in saudi arabia have healthier babies than us for cripes sake. Theres something wrong here.
