after i had my c-section, two things happened. my chest went from a 34b to a 34 damn ZZ. it was like out of a horror movie. then overnight my temperature spiked to 104, i almost died. as a result of that fever, the milk in my breasts literally spoiled. in order to prevent me from getting other serious infections, the doctor had to give me a medication that completely halted my ability to produce milk.
it was a very bad time. so, you see, it's not that all new moms don't want to breast feed, but things happen.
they are back to normal. thank the heavens. that was one of the scariest things i ever went thru. imagine if you woke up one day and your penis was an elephant's trunk.

That would literally be awesome
I understand that there are one offs like this, but I'm talking more about the more general situation. We could also talk about women who have had serial killers cut their tits off, but that doesn't invalidate the point.
That the only arguments against treating nursing as the norm are specific situations goes a long way toward proving the point of my question.
i agree. but problems with nursing are more commonplace than we realize. back in the good ole days when a mother had issues, there were wet nurses, trusted women, who filled the void.
