Hello,
I am a grad student doing research on the historical influence of the media and
the advertising of formula on breastfeeding in the U.S.  I would like to go back
as far as the advent of infant formula which I have read is sometime during the
late 1800's.
If anyone would know of some good resources that might trace the diminishment of
breastfeeding among American women, I would really appreciate having that
shared.
Please respond to me directly by e-mail:
