Breastfeed? Bottle feed (hey, it's organic)?
I almost feel bad posting this juxtaposition. It's like shooting fish in a barrel.

I've read this article before, and each time I'm shocked and saddened by this part: "By six months, exclusive breast-feeding had declined substantially in both groups, to 7.9 percent for the education group and 0.6 percent for the controls." (The rest of it gets a resounding "well, DUH!" from me ;) ) I probably shouldn't be shocked, but I always am.
Organic is always good :)
yes decisions are very important.
I think it just depends on the individual, I don't think either way is necessarily right or wrong!
Your blog is great. Lots of great info on birth-giving. I'm sure the women love it. Very helpful and could save a lot of trouble.
