How has breastfeeding been viewed over the centuries? Why has there sometimes been suspicion about breastmilk? And how much does society shape the baby-feeding experience for women?
Joanna Wolfarth, an art historian and writer, joins us on the podcast to discuss her book 'Milk: An Intimate History of Breastfeeding'. She shares some of her fascinating research for the book (including wooden nipple shields and 17th century bottles!) as well as her own difficult experiences with breastfeeding.
