I think it's great that moms are finding support in Freda, and I think that any mom can use more support. I always become a little concerned when someone is held up as a guru, though. Ideally, I think we should empower moms, because they're their own best experts on themselves and their babies. I do understand that Freda's presentation as a breastfeeding celebrity could be a slight distortion of the article, and have nothing to do with her. Her quotes, which focused on enjoying your baby, were very grounded and down-to-earth. I read that article, and I liked it mostly.

Certified lactation consultants in my country do not charge anything for helping. Woah, I am shocked to read of the fortune they charge!
