stop it!! every one of us has been to the gyno, we know all about the benefits of breastfeeding. i got to breast feed for 3 weeks before my milk dried up i LOVED it and i will do it again with my next child, there's nothing better than that bond you form. BUT i'm not going to go around bashing ppl about their choice to ff like it or not formula does provide enough nutrients for the babies to not only survive but thrive. it doesn't mean they are bad moms if they choose to ff i'm sure they have good reasons even if it is they just don't want to. get off their backs you're not going to change their minds, you're just gonna make yourself look crazy.

And that is their choice to be into natural living right? Should others go around and tell them they shouldn't be that way?

So is breastfeeding. It's a personal choice.

 Oh, please. Most BFing moms are into health and natural living.
 It's typically the FFing moms who don't care what's put into their kid's bodies.

Quoting nursemc:
Just remember that many of the bf moms who carry on about how wonderful and sacred bf is go on to feed their kids mcdonalds and pump them full of drugs at the first sign of bad behavior. It's easy to be "perfect" when you have complete control over a helpless infant, but not so easy when they become an independant little person. Anyone who tells you they always do the right perfect thing for their kids is delusional.

Reality is they can. Many say that they were not able to produce enough of this or that. I say just own it, not everyone wants to nurse.


Quoting SnapIt:

Yeah most can, but it's their choice if they want to or not. No one should tell them they made a wrong choice because they just didn't want to. 

Quoting lovinglife0682:

I think most women can nurse but they are not given the proper tools and instruction.

Why so interested in her boobs? It's creepy if you ask me, lol!

That was not rude. And this is a moms website so when someone posts about something you are allowed to ask questions about the topic.



Get off your high horse and start walking!

Rude, annoying, and none of your business.

My dd has been sick twice in the past year. I blame it more on her constantly being around other/ older kids, not what I fed her 5 years ago.

I never said it wasn't a personal choice :)

So is smoking, drugs and drinking.. so is dropping out of school.. so is being a prostitute.

Just because something is a personal choice doesn't mean it's a healthy, smart choice.

Some personal choices are irresponsible, selfish or stupid. Some personal choices are responsible, healthy and smart.

It is what it is :)

If a woman truly researches both thoroughly, gives breast feeding a try then decides to not do it, then okay. It's amazing how a majority of women I know "dried up". If you stopped then you stopped, like others said "just own it". I guess I can respect someone saying that than lying. I still judge and think you're a selfish person but I don't say it. Keep giving your $ to formula companies ;)
To me it's like owning a farm with all the fresh fruits, veggies and meats you need but still going out to McD's for your food needs.
