Reasons for negative attitudes to breast-feeding are discussed. They do not relate to the relative properties of bottle or breast milk, but to anxieties and conflicts women experience in relation to their breasts and sexuality. A review of literature relevant to the clinical management of these anxieties is presented. The impact of physician attitudes and physician intervention on breast-feeding trends is discussed.
