yeah I'm always suspicious when a person's first post is like this - but my anyway.
I think moms should try to bf unless there is some physical reason not too - just cause it has been scientifically proven that its better for baby. That being said - I DON'T think moms should be made to feel bad or should beat themselves up if things don't work out. Sometimes milk doesn't come in, sometimes they just don't produce enough, sometimes there is an illness, sometimes work interferes, ect. I guess I too would have a problem with someone who didn't try to breastfeed because it's just inconvenient. Heck yeah it's inconvenient - but alot of things about having a kid are. That's motherhood. But bm is best and I want my kids to get as much of it as possible. I was only able to breastfeed for 7 months with Tripp (my supply got all funky when I got pg), I hope to bf this baby till its at least a year - maybe longer. I'm really proud of us too - look how nice and calm we all are!!! There was a time there when this board could get ugly!

I think the premise of the original post was pretty lame, and it's clear it was troll bait.

I can think of a couple of advantages to formula feeding, or at least bottle feeding, which might be that the baby's father or other caregiver have the opportunity to bond with the baby through feeding; the mother gets to rest more (let's face it, breastfeeding is EXHAUSTING in those early weeks), and you can measure exactly how much the baby is eating which can be important for tiny sick little babies. None of these advantages would have kept me from BFing, but there are always advantages to different methods.
Edited to add: it occurred to me that this was a troll post as well. This post has been edited by Paprikash on Feb 15 2007, 01:44 PM -------------------- |
