Thank you - <Snip>I
couldn't imagine NOT breast feeding, the benefits far outweigh the 
negative's!

As my fiance has pointed out, most Americans take the bass ackwards view 
about breastfeeding -- even its supporters.  We talk about the benefits of 
breastfeeding, as if breastfeeding made healthier, happier, more intelligent 
babies.

The truth is breastfeeding doesn't make babies healthier:  formula makes 
them LESS healthy!  Breastfeeding doesn't make them smarter:  formula 
damages their intelligence!  Only in this country is formula considered "the 
norm" as far as health "benefits" are concerned.  Breastmilk is the food God 
& Nature intended for babies.  So why do we still think of it as a 
substitute for formula?
