So I'm scrolling on fb and saw a pic of a chick breastfeeding. Their were many comments of course but one stuck out to me. "More women NEED to breastfeed" More women don't NEED to do anything. If you wanna breastfeed then that's wonderful but if you want to formula feed that's wonderful too! Some of y'all need to get over your selves!!! Breastfeeding does not make your child better then any one else's child!!
There's lots of info available relating to benefits of breastfeeding including that regarding intelligence not to say that you can compare infant to infant the benefits are long term so they may not be measurable until later in life
@royce_ivy I'm not intending to disagree with anything. You're completely right ad fast as its best to formula feed but I don't agree that the child is smarter. I've never heard of that and as I said I'd have to read into that. I find it hard to believe
No that's not what I'm saying & I'm not about to debate with u about it, it is what it is sweetheart I don't think u'll understand my point because your intent is to disagree so we'll just leave it where it is
@royce_ivy breast milk is better for kids then formula! I agree but you're telling me that all the breast fed kids in the world are smarter then formula fed? I don't believe that
When people say more women should breastfeed they are not taking a shot at the mothers who for some reason physically can not nurse her baby but facts are facts and Breast milk is the best milk for children for their digestive systems, for their brains, for the health of the mother as well. Every mother has their reasons for breastfeeding and for not some just need to be honest with themselves as to why they chose NOT to breastfeed when the reason is other than medical. Kind of like how #BlackLivesMatter is not an attempt to negate the fact that ALL lives matter. Just because Breast Is Best that's not to say that those who formula feed are bad We are all mothers whose goal is to keep our babies happy and healthy and we will all go about that using different methods that can possibly yield the same result. Moms don't beat yourself up if you can't breastfeed but you should reevaluate if you REFUSE to do so. Ultimately as long as you happy with your decision nothing else matters 😊
Study's have proven it for years and years I'm not saying that a parent should feel bad about not doing it but facts are facts & I've witnessed personally and there are so many benefits for mom and baby that it should at least be tried but it is what it is, u do what works for you! Just don't knock something that u haven't tried , don't get upset because someone's opinion differ from your own because actual fact is if more moms breastfed the country wouldn't be in debt like it is...if more moms breastfed then WIC wouldn't supply most of the milk u need To feed your child & have you ever read the ingredients in formula ??? That's neither here nor there just voicing my opinion because it's a touchy subject for me
Like most I agree breast is best however I do not look down on any mom who decides to formula feed. I could not breastfeed my son... I tried... As I will with this one. However it just didn't work. I thank God they have an alternative to feeding babies if you can't breastfeed. But as far as the person commenting on we need more moms who breastfeed I agree. I know a lot of people who decided to formula feed because the thought of their child feeding off of their boob disgusted them...
"women should not feel guilty if they are unable to nurse their baby, but they should feel guilty if they are unwilling to do so and they should be intellectually honest enough to know the difference"-Elizabeth Gene
@royce_ivy I'll have to read into that. I never heard that breastfed children are smarter. That can be real debatable!!!!
Some of us are in a situation that we have no choice though. I can't breastfeed due to an immune disorder. The breast milk would be harmful to the baby. I feel like every time I formula feed in public I will be judged. You never know the type of situation a mom might be in.
And study's show that breastfed children are actually smarter
I personally think that more moms do need to breast feed...I'm not saying that you're not a good mom if you don't I'm not saying that the child is better if you don't I'm just saying it is BETTER THAN FORMULA and the benefits ARE BETTER but if u choose to not do it then oh well but breast is best it's a fact and more women should at least try because that's what nature intended
I'm definitely pro-breastfeeding but definitely not anti-formula feeding. I strongly dislike the women who bring down mama's who choose formula.

Push presents are stupid, and women who expect “push presents” from their SO’s are even more stupid. You’re giving life to a human being for Pete’s sake! You don’t need a damn present for something your body is made to do. 🤦🏻♀️
There, I said it. 🤷🏻♀️
offended?
Would you be offended if one day your child told you they hated their name and was legally changing it?
You can be racist towards the race of your friends.
You can be racist towards your own race.
You can be racist towards the race of your family.
You can be racist towards the race of your spouse.
You can be racist towards the race of your kids.
Your racism doesn't just stop being racism because 'X' is said race.
Racism is Racism.
