Yes, definitely, Kathy, of course you are right that the bad stuff adds up --
your blocks and strings analogy exactly. I didn't really meant to say that
interventions are not a *contributing* cause of bf trouble at all.
Rather, my point was meant to be that focusing on the specifics of the
interaction can divert our attention from what I really do think, along
Magda's lines, is the more fundamental issue: that a culture that values
health and normal women's biology and mother-child closeness will tend to
have more "blocks" supporting bf and fewer undermining it even for those
women who do need birth interventions -- or even for those who just choose
them.
