Doctor's used to prescribe medicine that would dry up breast, immediately following child birth, when a new mom was not going to breast feed baby....Now, they refuse too, claiming that the side affects of these medications are too harmful....

I am the Grandma and I took the medication after each one of my children were born.

Noticed zero side effects and it seems it is even more unhealthy for the new mom to have to worry with lactating breast trying to care for a newborn baby.

While I can not argue with your personal experience, what can be easily argued with are medical facts. The well proven truth is that breast feeding is of enormous benefit to the child who is given this head start in life. Breast feeding actually removes worry from the new mother's life. The mother who breast feeds knows without a doubt that her baby is getting preciously the right and very best source of nutrition. She also knows that her baby is receiving an extra dose of immunities and other secondary protections. She also is building additional bonding and closeness with her baby that a plastic bottle cannot afford. Then there are the health benefits that come to the nursing mother. A woman who breast feeds is also doing one of the best things possible to avoid Breast cancer. The long and short is that any mass produced chemical blend cannot begin to compete with natural and pure breast milk.
