I't great for all of you ladies who can breastfeed... but bashing women who choose to give formula is tasteless. Yes, breastfeeding is a good choice, and 'free'...

But take into consideration women who are physically unable to. With my first son, I tired to feed as best I could. Unfortunately, the supply was minimal. After trips to the doctor and a mammogram later, it was confirmed that I had an overwhelming amount of cystic tissue in my breast and was unable to meet the demand a baby needs.

So while you complain that this 'wouldnt happen if she breastfed' and about all those 'kids in China dying from formula'.... why not stop judging and actually consider that there are women out there who try but cannot do it for actual reasons. Not every woman who tries and 'gives up' is making up an excuse.

Consider yourselves lucky that you don't have that problem and stop bashing women who aren't as lucky as you.
