You know what you think is going to be funny? Mooing while you breastfeed or pump. In the age of working women, breastfeeding, or more importantly NOT breastfeeding is fast becoming a contentious issue. Is it ok not to like breastfeeding? Is it ok to decide not to breastfeed at all? Whilst they certainly do say ‘breast is best’, does this take into consideration the mother and her general mental health state? I think we can all agree that a fed baby is a (mostly) happy baby, so with this in mind, is it worth your sanity to persist with a course of action that is not conducive to your own wellbeing? If washing and sterilizing (countless) bottles is the price you pay in order to regain some semblance of control in an otherwise incredibly chaotic time in your life, I think you’d pay it every time…. If you had the cash left over after spending a week’s maternity leave pay on formula.
