Breastfeeding should really be more widely publicized especially here where a lot of mothers still think formula is the best thing they could provide for their babies. Even for those who are already considering breastfeeding, more information on the right way to do it and more support for possible difficulties should be provided. I'm proud to say that my husband and I have both been part of the DOH-WHO breastfeeding campaign. He has written an extensive brochure in English and I have written a Filipino romance novel titled "Bukal Sa Dibdib" which is currently being printed to be distributed for free in communities.
