Dear Judy, I know a couple of more reasons I wish black moms would BF. The eczema! It is so awful for the black babies, scarring etc. and they are miserable. Most of what I can do is palliative and then they go on to develop asthma. It is so sad. So many of them are put on soy in an attempt to curb the allergies, which then exposes them to all the dangers of soy formula.
