Take a break magazine article

[napluster]

I have sent the following feedback to take a break magazine. Please read and comment on the article if you have time and care about this issue.

I was extremely disappointed to see the headline 'breast feeding killed my baby' when in my local sainsburys this morning. Reading the article it transpired that the baby who passed away had a genetic condition that would have affected him whether he had been fed on breast milk or cows milk formula. This was a tragedy for his family but in no way can it be attributed to his mother's choice to breastfeed.
Misrepresentation such as this can only continue to make breast feeding harder for mothers and may mean many new mothers are reluctant to try to breast feed. It is very disappointing that a magazine aimed at women does not support the facts when it comes to infant feeding.
Breast feeding is advised by the world health organisation and the NHS as being the optimum feeding choice for all babies and if anyone is concerned about their baby's health they should consult their midwife or health visitor.
I send my deepest condolences to Oliver's family but hope that a correction will appear in your magazine.

I agree with you!!! They put that on the front page just to sell the magazine. As a breatfeeding mother I am trying to give my baby the best start that I can after weighing up all the pros and cons it was my decision to make. If someone was trying to decide if they were breast or bottle feeding and saw that on a magazine but didn't actually read the article it may make them decide not to breastfeed.
I think breastfeeding is hard enough as it is (which does get me going on a little rant lol). Nobody batts an eyelid if a mother feeds her baby from a bottle whereever they are, however if a mother is breastfeeding she can be made to feel she is doing something wrong by doing it in public!! Breastfeeding is one of the most natural thing you can do.
I am not against bottle feeding but it does irritate me when you can be made to feel uncomfortable for needing to feed your baby in public when you are breastfeeding
Anyway back to the matter in hand lol. This magazine are just trying to sell magazines and in order to do that they have to use ridiculous titles on their front page

Way to go trying to alienate women for doing what is best for their children by sensationalizing stories
