When asked about challenges she and the other
Founders faced when they started La Leche League,
Mary Ann (Kerwin) commented, "The main challenge was
women's attitude toward breastfeeding. Women would
ask us, 'Why would you want to do that [breastfeed]?'"
When the Founders would talk to women
about breastfeeding, one of the replies they got was,
"I will try, but I know I won't succeed!" Mary Ann
added that there was a strong negative societal environment
related to breastfeeding. She ended with
the words "We trusted our instincts and followed
our hearts, and very soon we knew we were right!"
