First of all Michelle Bachman is referred to ...Jen,<br />First of all Michelle Bachman is referred to in our family as the "Bat Shit crazy Congresswoman from Minnesota. No offense to people from Minnesota, my Aunt Diane is from there and I love her to pieces.<br /><br />Second, You said everything so well about your experience with breast feeding. I to had great difficulties with my first child, Shannon. There came a point when my lactation specialist took me aside and told me that quality time is all time well spent, not just breast feeding. Fortunately, I breast fed the next three kids well. I was a cow! The point is you are a present parent. So, don't let that BAT SHIT CRAZY make you upset!

When I tell them she was formula fed, I sometimes get a silent stare. Um....<br /><br />It's awesome to feel guilt for something that I was really tormented over anyway...I didn't produce enough milk, I couldn't figuring out latching...I was EXHAUSTED...a multitude of reasons led me to formula feed. <br /><br />I say, if people are going to give me grief, try going after other things, like the time I left my baby at the doctors. Yeah, that could be a good one.<br /><br />Thanks for writing this.Elizabeth-FlourishInProgresshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00986231358585797741noreply@blogger.com
