so we are saying the same thing? like i think this definitely needs to start with the individual working around society until society steps up... but you are saying the individuals are not stepping up? like i was saying below, it's not just educational facts but common sense... facts tell us that breastfeeding is best but you can get by on formula... but common sense should tell you if your body makes it for... and it is not supposed to hurt. if it hurts, you are doing something wrong. breastfeeding did not hurt for me until my daughter's teeth came in...

and your coworker, seems there is more going on there... if you really want to do something, you do it? mothers should not be stressed over this, that just makes it more difficult. and some may look for a reason to give up rather than a reason to continue... but no one wants mothers to feel guilty to the point where it is affecting their mental/physical well-being. that helps little...

also, i used fenugreek http://www.hort.purdue.edu/newcrop/med-aro/factsheets/FENUGREEK.html to increase milk production when i was not pumping so regularly. and i used a manual breast pump.
