We were all FF nearly from birth. My second brother (baby #3) was BF the longest at 1 month but then she gave up because he was constantly on the boob and she found it hard to do that and look after my other brother and I properly. But she is a heavy smoker I'm actually glad that she didn't feed us I would rather have all the goodness of formula than all the chemicals of cigarettes. What she did in no way impacted on what my plans were for my babies.
Dh was BF exclusively for about 3 wks and then he was supplemented with formula and rice cereal because that's what her mothercare nurse told her to do, so she did it.
