Breastfeeding. The mere mention of it has many mothers wracked with
anxiety (how will I manage with work, other kids, what if I don't
make enough milk?) or guilt about not doing it (will I be hurting
my child ifl choose not to breastfeed? what will people think of me
if I choose not to?). This hot-button issue is one we've talked
about repeatedly in the media and in celebrity culture. Remember
when Angelina Jolie posed for the cover of W nursing her new-born?
Oh, the controversy! And when Barbara Walters complained about the
woman breastfeeding next to her on a plane? She was forced to issue
a public apology. Or what about when supermodel Gisele Bunchen
declared that there should be worldwide law that mothers be
required to breastfeed their babies for the first six months of
life? All hell broke loose. This topic gets people riled up, and
there has never been a narrative account that explores the
breastfeeding big picture for parents and their children in today's
world. THE BIG LETDOWN by author, journalist, and breastfeeding
advocate Kimberly Seals Allers will change that for the better and
open up a candid conversation about the cultural, sociological, and
economic forces that shape the breastfeeding culture and how it
undermines women in the process.
