The Central District Breastfeeding Coalition has produced a video entitled "Nursing is Normal" in hopes of raising awareness of the benefits of breastfeeding. The Coalition is made up of the Central District Health Department, St. Alphonsus, Saint Luke's, Elmore Medical Center and a local pediatrician.
What a stunning video! Breastfeeding is part of normal life, just as we breathe, and eat, we breastfeed... My only comment would be that if nursing is considered to be normal, "the norm", as this video clearly shows, then we shouldn't be saying "breastfeeding reduces the risk of ....", but rather "not breastfeeding INCREASES the risk of... ". We don't say "breathing fresh air reduces the risk of lungcancer" , because breathing fresh air is the norm, and smoking is the risk factor....
