I first heard about the La Leche League, an organization that advocates breast-feeding and provides support and information to nursing mothers, from Lea Salonga’s blog entry. And then later on, from my friend Dawn. Aside from the oft-mentioned benefits of the babies’ higher IQ, better health, and better bonding between mother and child, you save money on formula and keep formula packaging out of landfills.
If you cannot breastfeed, buy organic formula and use BPA-free bottles.
