We would  not be spending so much energy butting our heads against the walls
of  ignorance and corporate greed.  Then we could concentrate on how best to
help with the challenges rather than defencing ourselves and breastfeeding in

Winnie, you are right.  I was asking more tongue in cheek  anyway.  But this
point that you made is one of the reasons that being a  breastfeeding advocate
or lactation consultant is a receipe for burnout.   We aren't just helping
with the challenges -- we are constantly fighting to make  breastfeeding the
norm.
