When my Mom was raising her children, breastfeeding was NOT cool, and her doctor kind of went against common trend in saying she should continue to feed us formula longer and delay the introduction of food to limit allergies and stuff. What I'm getting at is parenting is dissected and contradicted every several years. Think about baby on back, baby on stomach, baby on side, baby in parent's bed, baby absolutely not in parent's bed. Those have all been the absolute mandate at one time or another.
And I think there is a vast difference in what the WHO recommends and what American women need to do. First of all, the water you would mix with the formula could kill your baby in a lot of countries.
