I am not a woman but I do know there are many instances where women cannot breast feed and having made the decision not to they can not just decide to start. My understanding is once the milk stops, it stops for that kid. Another pregnancy can restart the milk production process.
Some women...a lot of them cannot produce enough milk to feed their children...thats why many communities had wet nurses in the past.
And finally, some kids simply cannot eat regular milk. They have to have formula and some of those are pretty precise in what they deliver.
FJB and his tribe of heathens caused this. Its been a totally manufactured crisis since the beginning, as most of our shortages and issues are. All deliberately caused and orchestrated.
Got stats for that, because as a nursing mom who had a lot of friends who were also nursing at the same time (a baby boom at church), very few could not nurse or produce enough milk.
Most women can. My experience is that most who choose to bottle feed don’t really want to nurse and use that as an excuse.
