Maybe they do. Maybe your law is wrong. I know Lactnet is not a place
for political debate, but I feel this issue has a lot to do with
breastfeeding.
I believe the soldiers who are contemplating getting pregnant know
intellectually they will have to go back to the military after giving
birth, but that is not the same as the reality when it hits you.
Shouldn't American law protect these mothers, and more importantly,
their children, the future of the nation?
