Mums would then basically add anything white to it to make it more like milk. For some reason mums back then were doubting themselves and introducing this inadequate and unhygienic alternative and babies got ill and died as a result. So the poster wasn't just about stopping mums from feeding titbits at the table (they would do this as well & feed anything that looked like milk), it was about recognition even then that breastfed babies were observed to get ill less frequently than formula fed babies. As a midwife I can tell you that in the wrong hands modern formula can be just as unhygienic.

In 1910 I am sure there was a lot of misinformation about infant feeding based on old wives tales and as more women stopped breastfeeding, it was deadly for babies. We still see health campaigns like this created by the government for the general public for all sorts of things, from stopping smoking to not using drugs.

What about all the pollutants which are being released into the air and killing our babies!!! What about the manufacturers of candy and unhealthy food!!! I wish they would start campaigns like this aimed at governement and business. betterworld4momsnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3536683374417960813.post-66061554246431025912011-03-15T07:42:00.282-04:002011-03-15T07:42:00.282-04:00Great site and I look forward to checking out your...Great site and I look forward to checking out your updates!Mold in Homeshttp://www.moldremoval.orgnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3536683374417960813.post-61792541832208114942011-03-14T09:51:43.271-04:002011-03-14T09:51:43.271-04:00This was a good post.
