Dr. Snyderman is famous for her comment (in print) after the 1997 American Academy of Pediatrics recommendation that all babies in the US be fed for a minimum of one year. She said "I think breastfeeding is only worth the hassle for six months." On a brighter note, the September Reader's Digest has a little fluff piece about the bittersweet feelings of sending a daughter off to college for the first time. Describing her daughter's babyhood, she mentions sitting down to nurse with her toddler at day care, reconnecting before going home.
