I agree, but if there is a whole bunch of women with the same advice, that is contradicting what my doctor has told me, it would definitely make me second guess the doctor's advice and at least go and get a second opinion. There are plenty of doctor's out there who malpractice or with out dated medical advice.

I agree with @bitchcraft . As some doctors still recommend starting solids at 4m when the new recommendation is 6 months. There was even a doctor who recommended a user front face her 1 year old when many place have laws of 2 years-old with the recommendation for as long as you can.

As well some doctors recommend the use of castor oil to induce which can result in horrible, horrible consequences.

I may be a stay at home mom but I do have access to many reputable sources, medical journals, medical books, medical articles, etc as a college graduate.

We should all take the time to listen and be aware of newer recommendations. Now if it's something that's like completely crazy not to listen to them, I agree lol.

While you shouldn’t blindly listen to anyone on the internet, you shouldn’t necessarily do it with a doctor either. Many doctors aren’t up to date on things, some even suggest things that aren’t safe. Just make sure you do your own research so you can be 100% sure it’s the best option! (Whatever it is lol)
