BW and B456 actually express that it is mothers who FF are in some way made to feel quite inferior, yet there may be valid reasons why BF is not possible (and lets face it, who in today's western society has a wet nurse or BF sister on hand to BF these babies?)

B456 makes an excellent point: if I were to pick a greater evil, it's the psychological damage done by poor parenting rather than anything from FF. No one is trying to make BF mothers feel like they ought to hide their tickers - it is FF mothers who are under fire here.
Well from my point of view BFing mothers are also made to feel guilty or as if we are doing something wrong also. As Astrid said, we all cop flack about our choices regardless of what they are. I mean gees a law was passed to protect a mothers right to breastfed in public!
I personally beleive as I pointed out with BW situation that breastfeeding isn't always the best option. BUT as long as its an informed choice. This is why I also gave BW the number for Mother safe, as they are the most upto date people to ask about medication during PG & bfing. BW's Dr may tell her these drugs are bad while BFing, but infact they may be fine. I'm not saying her Dr is wrong. He just might not have the most current information. Alot of drugs are automatically put on the not while BFing list, simply because the information at hand isn't the current. Side tracked there sorry.
I can't comment of B456's situation as I don't actually know her reasons behind not breastfeeding. But I am sure it was a choice made out of love for her child & what was best in her situation.

There is a link in my www, if you would like to see information that isn't based on emotional writing.
