I think it taught me to rise above the Jedi Mind Tricks of advertising. Good one. :)

Almost like it's losing it's effectiveness. I see pink on everything and I'm almost immune to it. It makes me mad when people jump on the charity or cause bandwagon simply to make money. Especially when it's companies that could be adding to the problem with what they are selling (crap food). It feels like over kill now too. Almost like it’s losing it’s effectiveness.

It is not just beneficial for baby ...there are many benefits for mom too and reduced risk of breast cancer is one of them. Very good point Jenny!

After all, breastfeeding particularly extended breastfeeding or breastfeeding multiple children for at least a year each can significantly reduce a woman's risk of developing breast cancer. Sadly, lactation's role seems downplayed in the prevention of this cancer.
