No, I do not think I'm a better mother because I breastfeed, however I do want what's healthier for my baby and I feel that breastfeeding is. Many mothers that I've talked to absolutely refuse to even try breastfeeding as an option. They look at me like it's barbaric or something. They say, "Oh, I tried it once, but it hurt, so I switched to formula...ect..." So, I say, if you play the guitar, wouldn't it take a while to develop caluses on your fingers until you get used to it? Same thing with breastfeeding, of course it will hurt at first, but then you get used to it. What is wrong with mothers these days? Is breastfeeding something that women are embarrassed of or is it just the laziness of our society?
