To: I still care
Your comments are spot on. One of my staff had a baby last year and was committed to breastfeeding. She and her husband are in a situation which her salary is important to the family's making ends meet. It is not gravy. Anyway, we work in an environment that fortunately can allow the flexibility required for pumping. Most are not that lucky.

My daughter-in-law is in the under-educated low income catagory. She I guess tried to break the mold. She started out trying to breast feed our grandson. BUT due to RH factors between her and the baby (Matthew ended up with a blood transfusion to stop the bili-rueben count from going off the charts) had to quit breast feeding and switch to the forumla (which is 58% sugar). Matthew is now 8 1/2 months old and TO FAT for this granny's liking, but is now starting to slim down due to his starting to crawl.
