Hi, a few years ago, one of the UK daily newspapers had a series of lists of
things. I sent in this list, which was published.
Reasons not to breast-feed
My mum didn't breast-feed me, and I'm fine.
What if someone sees your boobs? (My boyfriend wouldn't like that.)
I want my body back after nine months of pregnancy.
This milk from the clinic has prebiotics and long-chain fatty acids in it
anyway.
My baby is better off with a wet nurse outside the noxious airs of the city
(18th-century reason).
I can conceive another heir for my husband's family sooner (17th-century
reason).
Breast-feeding is an intense relationship with another human being requiring
attention and commitment (21st-century reason).
These designer bottles are so cute.
