I have been dealing with the worst
guilt about formula feeding my daughter.
Not exact matches
So, for the sake of the things I wish I had known when I
fed my boys
formula (because, yes, it would have saved me a lot of
guilt), here are nine things that no one will tell you
about formula feeding.
I felt so much
guilt about supplementing and
formula -
feeding my babies that I rarely left the house, cancelled plans, and
fed my babies in private to avoid questions, looks, comments, and that goddamn overwhelming
guilt.
The
guilt issue is most pronounced with the formulabreastfeeding debate, where health professionals and public health bodies hesitate to give mothers accurate information
about formula risks (with a lot of «support» from
formula companies), so they won't feel «guilty» if they decide to
formula feed.
Try to remember this if you ever feel
guilt about this aspect of parenthood: no one gives a shit if you were breastfed or
formula fed.
