Oh My GOD!!!!?

Question

Why are we all arguing about Breast VS Bottle? There have been countless studies that show bothe are very healthy for babies. I am a breast/bottle mother and have done it for both of my children I dont see anything wrong with either method. People I think we are starting to miss the BIGGER picture here. OUR CHILDREN, cant we all just agree to disagree. Noone knows our personal situations like we do. I am going to be the BIGGER person here and apologize to all those offended on behalf of all of the offenders (and that does go both ways). GEESH!!! I mean am I right or wrong......as long as our children are growing up in a healthy environment we have nothing to worry about, opinions are just that opinions everyone is intitled to that.

Answer 1

lol you missed the posting yesterday about how american women are lazy and more worried about the tightness of their vaginas and thats why we are more apt to have c-sections.. we were being called "too posh to push" *Shrugs*

i breastfed my daughter, plan to do the same with the baby im having now, and I dont have any problems with a mother who choses infamil over the breast.. its their decision and theres much more important things to worry about then whos feeling their baby what.

Answer 2

I agree with you...as long as the baby eats, I don`t care what method is used. I wanted to try breastfeeding but I didn`t produce any milk until a 6 days after she was born and when I did, it was too small of an amount and only lasted 1 week...by then she was already used to formula and bottle. She`s fine and I`m fine..that`s what matters.

Answer 3

God bless your soul, I am one stupid mom that posed the breast vs bottle question way back when my daughter was 2 months old, she is now 8 months old, 3 months of breast and the rest bottle. she is happy, healthy, active, curious, fun, cute, naughty .... all the wonderful things that babies are. she has everything in the right place and I am sure we can cultivate a good soul in her - that's all that matters. I AGREE WITH YOU AND PARTICIPATE WHOLLY IN YOUR APOLOGY.
I am not American yet I had a C section (the posting I saw yesterday about American women and their physiology), I couldn't produce enough milk and God I too feel guilty even though I very well know I needn't.

Answer 4

Yes I agree, of course the children come first. I would have liked to have breastfed longer than I did, but my body just didn't produce enough for my growing daughter. I was able for the first 4 months, but after that she was just on formula and she is just fine. NO different from any other child.

Answer 5

I agree, those arguments actually had me scared to give my aby a bottle and no mother should be scared of something like that...then when my body decided to unexpectidely stop producing milk...the baby almost died and i think the stress took a toll on my body, and i dont think i ever produced right anyways....i felt guilty for putting her on a bottle. That was awful and I wish no mother had to go through that hell like I did...hell i still have feelings of guilt for not being able to breastfeed. That blows.

Answer 6

I totally agree.When I had my son I was only 15 years old.Everyone in my family urged me to breast feed,and they gave me a thousand reason why I shouldn't give him formula.Any ways the breastfeeding did not work.I had to go to school,do homework,study for test,etc. But he's a healthy two year old now,and I think I made the right decision.No,I know,I made the right decision.

Answer 7

Hmmm....you do no longer say why you broke up or who did the breaking (in case you initiated or he did). that would want to wish to assist in questioning what his reason might want to be. ... no longer comprehend-how any coaching, i visit assert this: proceed with caution. it must be that he only gained't take care of to attend to having been dumped, so he's on a project to "educate" that he (a million) can get you decrease back and (2) might want to be the single which does the dumping. I say this utilising certainty some human beings only gained't take care of to attend to having been dumped and may want to move to any lengths to educate that they could get the guy who dumped them decrease back and "administration" the placement. That suggested, even with if his reason is that he desires you decrease back for genuine, evaluate why you broke up contained interior the first position. honestly, there replaced actual right into a reason and there is a reason that you're hesitant again with him. crawl and intently with this.

Answer 8

i am not a mom!!! the only thing i have to say about it is that baby need their first feeding to be breast due to the antibodies. i heard that some hospitals will ask u to use a breast pump... if you don't want to let the baby to suckle even once..so they can get the antibodies
it makes the healthier to fight off sickness...sure i do believe that god intended breast to be used for that reason(feeding their young)...not for mans pleasure(sorry guys)
but times have changed and i trust peoples thinking will to...

Answer 9

well, scientific studies have proven that breast milk is better, but that doesn't mean that babies that are bottle fed aren't healthy. if you're a good parent then it won't really make any noticable difference...

Answer 10

i agree that each mother is going to do the best they can to provide what there child needs. no-one is going to change there opinion either way so why argue. we all are just trying to be good mommies and maintain a life of our own.
