Sure! Did you ever watch that weird lady that used to go on Tucker? The Sherpa or whatever she called herself. She spoke about how it’s offensive to those who can’t or won’t. I’ve heard them talk about “chest feeding” and they (msm and the like) REALLY push for formula use and shame moms who breastfeed (especially in public, oh the horror! Feeding a baby with breasts!) They’ve perverted everything that is meant for good. Sadly the majority of moms (at lease here in the U.S.) chose to use formula immediately, or wean within 3-6mo because of the stigma and limitations. Ex: pumping at work is really hard to keep up with; you can’t drink a lot of alcohol if you’re breastfeeding; and it demands more time that a lot of people are willing to give.
That’s just my opinion and perception on what I’ve observed. I’ll admit I’m biased and maybe a little jaded lately! I’ve breastfed all five of mine with varying situations: being fairly young and naive with my first and being discouraged, to one baby with a dairy sensitivity, one while I was wanting to work more and stop pumping because it was hard, all to way to present time where I’m older and wiser in a sense. I bf my now 4yo until she was 2 1/2 and am currently bf my youngest which is 2.
That was a long and drawn out answer there sorry! ?
