I think that breast feeding is a wonderful thing. The problem that I had with it is THE EXACT opposite of the problems that everyone else here seems to have. Mainly, I was made to feel guilty for not breast feeding. So many disappointing ‘tut tuts’ from other women when they found out that I did not breast feed. “Don’t you know it’s healthiest...
