it really bothers me when people don't even attempt to breastfeed and then use government money to pay for their child's formula. I'm not trying to bad mouth anyone on here who does that. because I don't know if any of you do. but I do know people who do around me.
I just feel if you can't afford to bottle feed you need to do everything possible to breastfeed and not give up after the first sign of difficulty. and don't give your baby a bottle when you haven't established breastfeeding because you screwed yourself over

No her problem is with people who can't afford formula, don't even bother trying to breastfeed and then go right to the government for assistance without attempting to feed their baby with their own body free. Smh. @babyluca

so your problem here is ppl who use the government for WIC, food stamps, housing, insurance, ect. not that ppl choose to breastfeed or formula feed! that is a big difference. and to me should've been worded a lot differently. what your also saying is ppl who are on foodstamps are the same way because they will not find a job that pays more money 😏. or find a job that offers better insurance so ppl arnt on gov assistance.

Yeah I understand that, just sometime there is no other option. I am not one for asking for help, however I did with that cuz them being fed is far more important than my ego

@kelseys, but that's just it its not wrong..... If that's the case WIC wouldn't even exist. It's wrong for people to do a lot of things they can't afford. But don't bash a woman for trying to feed her child..... Regardless of how she does it. But I digress.... Smh

@twinmamma2015, thank you. and I didn't mean it was wrong for them to formula feed I just felt they should try the free method first before getting wic.

Omg I'm pretty sure you said you have a problem with people who don't attempt to breastfeed and make the government pay for their kids formula. Not that you took issue with people who couldn't for any reason omfg.

@mommybump2016, @sexxymama83 @babyluca I think what she's trying to say is that its wrong for women to formula feed if that can't afford it, not so much that formula is bad..... not that you guys are wrong for what you commented but just trying to help you better understand what she might have meant

some cases though there isn't much of a choice. like I did try to breastfeed and failed miserably at it, however I had some complications and I was trying to breastfeed twins for the very first time, they were my first. So WIC definitely helps a lot however one of my boys needs to be on an organic formula and WIC doesn't cover that. so I'm still am paying 30 a can for it.

If you're going to post an opinion, expect people to respond with their opinion. I understand what you mean but everyone has a different situation. Some people don't give breastfeeding much of a chance and they go straight to formula (I agree). Most people see formula vs breastfeeding as an option so they're going to go for what seems most convenient for them. In my situation... I have to wean my baby from the breast bc I need to start back working. Sometimes I wish I would have stuck with the bottle/formula bc it's SO hard to break that attachment.
