I had always breastfed my kids and was shocked to find just how rude people could be if you pulled out a bottle!! My son has cleft lip and palette and so has no choice but to have one, even though it is EBM. I even heard one lady comment to her friend "to lazy to feed that baby properly" when i got the bottle out. I proudly held my son up and said loudly to DH 'Isn't it great bottles were invented otherwise my son would of starved due his birth defect'. That shut her up fast EVERY mother needs to feed thier own baby the way that is best for THEM !!
