Madeleine joins Midwife Cath in an informative and robust conversation on the history and politics surrounding breast and bottle feeding, her own experience formula feeding her two daughters, the myths and pressures for new mothers along with analytical data surrounding bottle feeding. A must listen to for new and expectant parents on how you can make sense of all the noise out in the community.
