I have a three month old baby. I tried to breastfeed in the beginning but it was difficult because my newborn refused to take it. When my newborn finally did, it wouldn't be for long. I was more exhausted having to go and do it at all hours while my husband slept...only for the baby not to want to.I gave up after two weeks, and just pumped milk or used formula in a bottle. Now my husband also pitches in more, and helps to feed her. Problem solved...Except people are appalled when I tell them I don't breastfeed. Even strangers come up to me and ask why I am not breastfeeding. It gets very heated, very fast. Other mothers say it's wrong. That my child is going to grow up to be unhealthy and have a low IQ from not breastfeeding (been told this by three different moms).Is it really? via /r/Parenting http://ift.tt/29fmzzq
