Dear Lactnetters, This link was sent to me by my oldest son who with my other children ( like I'm sure many of you) grew up around breastfeeding women and learned that breastfeeding is the norm from an early age on. He has become a breastfeeding advocate:) I'm sure many of you have seen this but if not it is very scarey stuff. After about the 16th paragraph, there is strong encouragement for breastfeeding. Here's the link: http://huffingtonpost.com/john-robbins/female-infants-growing-br_b_676402.html. Hopefully you are able to access without a problem. Sincerely, Colleen McKeown MSN, IBCLC Mom of 3 exclusively breastfed babies.
