But that is just it, I refuse to fell guilty or to be made to feel guilty about giving formula to my child. Yes I breastfed her for the first 5 months of her life, but due to supply issues and working I made the decision to put her onto formula. If I refuse to feel guilty about it, then I refuse to make any other person feel guilty about it as well. The reason a person makes a decsion is theirs to decide and should not be second guessed or pooh poohed by somebody else.

And to make a point, if I was to go onto the vaccination forums and tell people to vaccinate with some of the reasons given here for breastfeeding, then I would be shouted down and quite rightly so. It's amazing the amount of people that are against compulsory vaccination but feel it is ok to make people breastfeed.
