Hi, Magda :)
"Christian" viewpoints on breastfeeding are all over the board.  The Roman
Catholic Church is officially strongly in support of breastfeeding.  There is an
ordained woman on parent-l, sorry I dont remember her name, who was writing a
book titled "The Christian Woman's Guide to Breastfeeding" that included
extensive theological and scriptural discussion.  I dont know if it's been
published yet.  I'm going to amazon.com shortly to check.
