Don't underestimate the cult mentality of the La Leche League (aka the leaky league).I nursed all 4 of my children. However, before giving birth to #2, I had a breast cancer scare. My doctors and I agreed I would nurse for 6 weeks before going for further testing, etc. LLL big-muckey muck gave me HELL because I thought it would be better for my daughter to have a live mother and be fed formula than be nursed until I dropped dead. Nope - I was evil for wanting to live. (FYI - I'm fine)
