Pregnancy Info HOME

I am a breastfeeding mom. i believe thatthe health benefits of bm is soo much better than that of formula. when i first became pregnant my husband and i said i would bf because it is free and we could not afford formula. after my bf classes i was excited how healthy it is for her. but even though i feel all of this, i do not look down on those who chose to formula feed. i do agree that bm is better, it does not make them bad mothers. to the mom who diluted her formula, even though she may have had the option to bf, no one knows what stopped her. i was a formula fed baby because my mothers milk (no matter how hard she tried) wasnt having me gain weight the way i should.bfing is hard and i had cracked and bleeding nipples for the first month, but maybe she didnt know that adding more water would take away from the calories.all im saying is no matter how pro breastfeeding i am, i dont think someone is a bad mom for formula feeding. or for being undereducated about baby' milk to know the dangers of diluting
