Commitment, or lack thereof...
| Tue, 01-08-2008 - 1:56pm |
So I just saw something somewhere else (won't specify where, but I bet a few of you will figure it out!) where a woman indicated that she WAS planning on breastfeeding, but now because of a heated debate about it, she doesn't want to anymore.
Ummmmm, are you kidding me?

No, LOL.
Exercise is good. Breastfeeding is good. Breastfeeding and exercise are analogous.
Even though all the health care agencies tell us to breastfeed and exercise, we don't all do it. Most of us do OK in spite of the lack of BF/exercise, but in the long run we're better off if we do. Just because we don't BF and/or exercise, doesn't mean we're bad people. BF like exercise is what our bodies are designed to do. Both BF and exercise affect all kinds of body systems including physical development and emotions.

You can't believe or not believe anything you want, the moon is made of cheese, the world is flat, the Easter Bunny is real, but it doesn't change the reality.
Agreed.
I think in our messed-up culture, putting sexualty before function creates much of the problem people have with breastfeeding.
Don't just dream it, girl!
