The recent ones have arrived on television Gisele Bündchen model statements about breastfeeding They have caused some controversy and stir. Gisele, who is the mother of an eight-month-old baby, made these comments in defense of breastfeeding in the magazine "Harper's Bazaar":
There should be a world law, in my opinion, for mothers to breastfeed their babies for six months.
The model pointed out that in the United States many women decide not to breastfeed their babies and give them “chemical” foods, which they do not share.
But more surprising are some of the pearls that his “opponents” threw against these statements, alluding to the fact that the model is “genetically flawless” and has barely gained weight during pregnancy. And what will one thing have to do with the other, you may ask?
I imagine they refer to one of Gisele's arguments, which states that breastfeeding helps moms regain their weight, and although I understand that the model seems like a fundamental reason, there are many other reasons why breastfeeding the best.
I believe that the only thing the model has done is to express their thoughts out loud and that, about the mandatory It is only a way of speaking.
However, also I understand that some women bother with these statements, not precisely because of the physical qualities of the model but because they could not breastfeed for one reason or another, including medical reasons for not breastfeeding that, however much law there would be, would impede its "compliance."
In any case, that the famous also breastfeed is a reality that in this mediated society helps to normalize breastfeeding, which is a “resource” to take advantage, as were the statements of famous footballers in favor of it.
If many children want to be like Beckam, surely many girls want to be like Gisele, another thing is that they "copy" only some patterns of their models that may not seem as positive as fitness or breastfeeding.
Afterwards, the model, which, from what I see in her blog, is also a defender of natural childbirth and nurturing with attachment (although I don't know if she is a “practitioner”), she clarified, trying to calm the spirits:
My intention in commenting on breastfeeding has nothing to do with the law, but with my passion and my convictions about children.
But of course, in this world where talking passionately for or against breastfeeding causes so many reactions, these Gisele Bundchen statements in favor of “mandatory” breastfeeding they had already lit the flame ...
