Unfortunately, I do see that here.   I have seen mom's reporting that
their babies refuse the breast late in the fast, they give the
recommended prepumped bottles, which triggers a nursing strike.

Probably not common, but I've run into it twice.

I certainly wasn't recommending that nursing mom's should choose, or
that they shouldn't fast, simply that solutions wrt fasting and nursing
should be *breastfeeding* solutions, not bottlefeeding solutions.
