Breastfeeding
A group for past, current, and future breastfeeders. Feel free to ask questions and share your experiences. This is a place to support and encouraging breastfeeding.
*We especially encourage: exclusive breastfeeding for the first 6 months of life; child-led weaning and delayed introduction of solids; breastfeeding for at least the first two years of life.

*NO SPAM! Any posts or replies added for the purpose of advertising will be deleted immediately. Reasonably sized ads in signatures are acceptable.
*NO DRAMA:
-Own your feelings - posts or replies stating "you are making me feel guilty" and the like are not acceptable.
-Exit posts, i.e. "I'm leaving!" will be deleted.
-If you do not agree with another member's reply, ignore it and respond to the OP only. If you see someone spreading myths or misinformation about breastfeeding, address it in a courteous and considerate manner.
*This is a breastfeeding support group! Posts and replies encouraging the use of formula when not medically necessary are not welcome. Please only offer factual information about breastfeeding - no spreading myths and misinformation.
*This is a baby-friendly group. Posts and replies that encourage unhealthy or less-than-gentle actions are not welcome. This includes, but is not limited to: abrupt forced weaning without medical need, smoking/drinking while pregnant, cry-it-out, corporal punishment.
*No bashing. It is ok to be passionate about breastfeeding! And it is ok to disagree with other members. However, please be respectful of other group members. Name-calling and personal attacks will not be tolerated. Use of that unfortunately uncommon n-word for passionate breastfeeders is not acceptable in this group.
*Off topic posts are fine. Please label them "OT." Please refrain from inflammatory posts - i.e. abortion, circumcision, vaccinations.
Members violating these guidelines are subject to removal from the group.
Please feel free to message the group owner and admin with any comments or concerns.
