I'm very excited about the new AAP guidelines for breastfeeding.  However, I
am very disappointed in the media coverage.  The "media" seems so worried
about whether this is going to make things more difficult for working mothers,
never once have they metioned ALL the benefits to our children and the
lifelong benefit to them, why the negative view?  Why can't they focus on the
postive side of breastfeeding our children for this recommened length of time?
