I like them. They are very typical for their period.

Women during this time period tried breast feed much longer than we do now, so there would be some nips from toothy toddlers to worry about. I would also imagine that the garments women wore would affect the way babies were encouraged to latch.

I think the natural/relaxed looking ones do look better but that stern look was how lots of pictures look back then.

We certainly have to be forgiving towards the time period, I totally appreciate that...
