@drruthannharpur @ChristineMBrett Unfortunately mums always get criticised by someone whatever we do.

@tammywriter @ChristineMBrett That doesn't mean that attempts to increase breastfeeding rates are going to improve health outcomes and if you're concerned about stigma in relation to infant feeding, there's increasing evidence that women who formula feed get a very large dose of it.

Nope ❌absolutely no good evidence that how a baby is fed impacts the quality of relationship they have with their parents or anyone else ❌not a single study demonstrating that increasing breastfeeding has improved any health outcome in the U.K. or a comparable context 😱Most women in the U.K. find breastfeeding intolerable due to pain, latching or milk supply issues and stop well before intended ✋Would suggest looking at other ways to address environmental concerns rather than haranguing women about how they feed their babies.

@drruthannharpur @ChristineMBrett I think it’s more of an indication of the lack of support breastfeeding mums receive. Bottle feeding is the social norm and there’s stigma around bf - especially in public places. Also social determinants and the attitudes of HCPs affect bf. ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/P…

Please do direct us to these studies showing that increasing breastfeeding leads to improved health outcomes. Not correlational studies as I'm sure you know correlation does not imply causation. At the last infant feeding survey 80% women who started breastfeeding stopped before they intended to and gave pain, latching and milk supply as their reasons to stop. That's a clear indication that the majority are not finding it tolerable. Not hyperbole.
