I would like to comment on the recent post by Richard Weston. I agree that
we need to focus more on what we can do, and less on blaming the formula
industry for the poor breastfeeding rates in our country. No amount of
marketing could have convinced me not to breastfeed my babies because I was
educated about the benefits of it for my babies and myself. We will increase
the rates of breastfeeding by education and promotion. It might take us a
while but we will get there!!!
