Thanks so much for your responses!!!

I know not everyone has these stupid opinions but its hard as basically all of my family does also. My mum refused to feed us through the night from 6 weeks old!!! My sister was only born 5lb 2 so I can't quite understand that but anyway... that's what they were taught to do I suppose. No wonder her milk dried up!!! I have already bf longer than any female in my or my dh family!
Normally people feel a pressure to bf but I have it the other way with my sister and mum telling me to put him on formula!

Astrid - Yep, my husband and I are on the same wavelength when it comes to parenting mostly. Your right - it definitley helps!
