my mother never really bonded with me, and I was bottle fed. this may be the genesis of my obnoxiousness.

I was on a bit of a roll there wasn't I? Yes, this is one of my hot-button issues. And, usually[emphasis], I'm not so long-winded. Thanks for letting me share a bit. I feel much better. :)

You mentioned that people told Brooke Shields to stop breastfeeding since she was going through postpartum depression. Well, Shields felt breastfeeding was the only good thing she had going on at the time. As you mentioned breastfeeding promotes the release of a good hormone, Oxytocin, in the mother. That's probably why Shields didn't want to give it up.

One thing that's very frustrating to me is the negative and/or uninformed comments that people make to new mothers who are breastfeeding and in Brooke Sheilds' case (though I'm not sure just hers) breastfeeding and experiencing postpartum depression.

Thank you for this video. I just had a baby and was struggling with the guilt of not being "in love" with him -- protective, yes. In love? No. And I am looking forward to him being able to respond to me in the future while trying not to "rush" this period of his life. Thanks, again.

@hkdancergl - So pleased that this was helpful for you--I do think it's a topic women don't speak of enough, and it' so helpful to have that reassurance. You might want to find a "new moms" support group in your area - sometimes local hospitals provide them, other times it's via a yoga studio or just an informal "meet-up" group. Best of luck.

You really remind me of Elaine Benes, from Seinfeld.

@bigphilophobiac - Three years later: Yes, Elaine reminds me of ME too! Weird.

Lastly, "abrupt weaning," what people were suggesting to Shields, can cause rapid hormonal changes in the depressed breastfeeding mother--which may, in fact, worsen depression. That medical advice was not only not helpful (and probably not asked for), but could have been dangerous.
