We might be in the majority, but we are also encouraged to formula feed quietly, whilst feeling guilty. Breast feeders can (and do) shout from the rooftops about how much they like feeding, that is better, and talk about all the benefits of boobs, but when formies do the same, all hell breaks loose - this thread is evidence of this.
I'm a confident, outgoing woman. I'm not afraid to speak my mind, but I feel battered and pressurised and judged by the barrage of anti formula feeding stuff that comes my way. We might be the majority, but we are a repressed majority.
In my nct class, they refused to show us how to safely make up a bottle, even though we asked, because it would be viewed as promoting formula. But we had a dedicated session on breastfeeding. They know that the majority of women will end up formula feeding (as did virtually all of our group), and yet promoting boob was seen as more important than showing people how to safely feed their child if it didn't work out (or didn't want to feed). I knew what to do, and it's a good job, because not one midwife checked we knew how to make bottles, not one health visitor.
Where I live, there is literally breastfeeding support round the clock, and groups that meet every single day. Those groups in reality don't just support breastfeeding, but early motherhood - though that support is only available to those who are a member of the special club breastfeeding makes you a member of.
and yes, formies can go to toddler groups (great...) and paid for activities, but there is nowhere for us to just get support as a new mother, unless we breastfeed.
