Breastfeeding is undermined due to the Guilt Issue

Pat

Formula advocates who does not support or promote breastfeeding frequently ushers the plea that one should not make the mother feel guilty for not breastfeeding.  Formula company manufacturers and certain health professionals make use of the “not making mothers feel guilty” ploy to deflect attention from their lack of knowledge and understanding regarding breastfeeding.  This is an easy way out for them not to feel guilty regarding their ignorance of how to assist new mothers to overcome difficulties with breastfeeding.  Some difficulties experienced by women with breastfeeding could even have been overcome and prevented in the first place if mothers were not undermined in their attempts to breastfeed.

How to approach Breastfeeding without making mother feel Guilty

 

All pregnant women, together with their various families, should have appropriate knowledge regarding the risks formula feeding pose.  All women should be encouraged to breastfeed; they should receive the best possible support to begin breastfeeding as soon as baby is born.  Adequate support for the mother is necessary once breastfeeding problems arise.  It is during these times when the mother wants to stop breastfeeding altogether that she should keep the benefits of breastfeeding in mind at all times.  Sore nipples, engorgement of the breasts, thrush, etc. should not influence breastfeeding mothers switching to formula feeding.  They should keep the long-term health of their babies in mind at all times.            

Breastfeeding should be promoted amongst all new Mothers

 

After reading the above, one should ask the following question: Who does really feel guilty about breastfeeding?  It becomes clear that it is not the women who made an informed choice to formula feed, but rather those who wanted to breastfeed, who tried, but ultimately failed.  One way to eliminate the guilt issue in women regarding breastfeeding is to promote breastfeeding together with good, knowledgeable, and skillful support, rather than  avoiding promotion of breastfeeding altogether.  It is a sad reality though that this is not the case in some countries. 

Advantages of Breastfeeding over Formula Feeding

 

Apart from theoretical advantages, clinical data indicated that both breastfed babies and their mothers are much better off than formula fed babies.  Breastfed babies have fewer gut infections, fewer ear infections, and also have a lesser chance of developing juvenile diabetes, among other illnesses.  The breastfeeding mother has a lesser chance of developing breast cancer, ovarian cancer, and is also protected against osteoporosis.
