Ok....my two cents.  I think that the US society is too "careful" about
giving themselves a "way out" when BFing is concerned.  You often
hear...."I'm going to try."  I personally think it's advantageous to step out
there and say, "I'm going to breastfeed."  Period.  Adds just a little more
insentive to find a way to get it right if you hit a rough patch.

That said.....yes it's her choice to remain private about it.  Everyone
doesn't rise to the occasion of positive promotion of BFing naturally.  :)
