In the reading, the author claims that bottle-feeding has more advantages than breast-feeding. However, needless to say the human milk is much superior to artificial milk for baby's health, the lecturer indicates that breast-feeding can be more benefical to mothers in some ways. First, the lecturer focuses on the conveniences of breast-feeding. Contrasted with the idea of the author that "bottle-feeding-mothers" can easily check the proper amount of milk eaten to her baby, the lecturer points out that "breast-feeding-mother" is totally free to worry about details such as the temperature, the proper amount, the proper composition of fomulas. All the mother has to do is just giving her nipple toword her kid's mouth. Second, according to the reading, the bottle feeding help mothers go back to their normal life and go on a diet. In contrast, the lecturer casted doubt on that idea because bottle feeding needs lots of efforts to keep the bottle clean so that it consumes lots of mother's free time. Moreover, contrasted with the reading, the breast feeding can be more helpful to lose mother's weight since it consumes 500 calories per each day. Lastly, the speaker claims that breast feeding is also benificial for making emotional bond between mother and baby. In the reading, the author mentioned that the bottle feeding can give the father a chance to have emotional connection with his baby.
