So I just saw something somewhere else (won't specify where, but I bet a few of you will figure it out!) where a woman indicated that she WAS planning on breastfeeding, but now because of a heated debate about it, she doesn't want to anymore.


Ummmmm, are you kidding me?

"Nice try, Ladies, but while crying in adults isn't "normal", it is in babies ;)"

Also, my DD didn't actually produced any tears when she cried until well after her first birthday (not sure if this is normal or not...).

Then how can you compare his method w/ that of AP?! Makes no sense, and is double-speak ;)"

I don't get it. How does *his* rudeness make *my* comparison double-speak?

"<>

Well, my edition says parent-directed feeding, or PDF."

And *your* edition is from the *mid*-90s. :o) Looks like you have one of the older versions. Does he advise 4 hour feedings right from the start in that one? Or had he toned it down to 2-3 hours by then?

This is false. Hunger, not the clock, determines feedings with Babywise>>

"Exactly, you've read all the "bad stuff", so how do you know there's nothing to the concept?
