[ID] 693 [Interest Areas] Concerned Citizen Other Areas: nursing mother [Comment] I cannot even begin to say enough about this!!!!!!!!! How can a new mother establish a breastfeeding relationship with her child when she has to return to work within weeks of giving birth? Just when they establish it, at 5-6 weeks, a majority have to return to work because they are not receiving paid maternity. With the prospect of breastfeeding or returning to work to keep their house, most moms will choose to return to work, stop breastfeeding and switch to formula. That is, if they even breastfeed at all. Why start something when you have almost immediately stop? Take care of the mother by paying her so that she can take care of her baby!!!!!! [Topic]
