I also just previewed these videos. I thought the "Why To" was excellent.
It presents good points that I haven't seen in other videos (such as
cultural & societal perceptions of breasts).
One of the scenes in the "How To" shows the mother in a hospital bed
receiving professional assistance with early breastfeeding session. To me
it looks like the LC, nurse (whatever) is pushing the baby's head into
the mother's breast with one hand while shaping her breast with the
other. The mother just watches. I guess this bothers me because I try so
hard to keep my hands off when working with couplets in the hospital, and
so many moms tell me
"the nurse just took my breast and slapped it in my baby's mouth, but
never showed me how to do it myself." The rest of the video was great,
but that scene just sticks in my mind.
I'm interested in hearing how others viewed that scene
