I chose to formula feed my daughter. I love her with all my heart, and am a great mother (contray to what other mothers will say because I didn't BF). I gave my daughter the best 9 months of my life when pregnant...eating healthy, excerising, quit smoking, quit drinking, yada yada yada and I give her everything in this world now but yes I was selfish and formula fed and do not regret one second of it. I'm sorry that my husband, mother, sister can help with feedings and make a bottle themselves... I can go out for a night and not worry about having a glass of wine or I can go to the mall and not have to whip my boob out in the middle of the common area. And my daughter is extemely healthy and happy. I don't think Im going to hell because I formula feed nor do I feel I am a bad parent. My husband and I agreed formula was the way to go for us. I'm sure there are plenty of things BF'ing mothers do that other parents wouldn't agree with but that doesnt mean you should be crucified for it. I think other mothers should get off their high horse about bf'ing and realize its just not for everyone and you're not

Yes and evidently studies showing moms who drink alcohol during pregnancy are at higher risk of developmental delay (ie related to FAS) are false, as are studies showing that carseat use is good at preventing injury in collisions...

"Gadgets" are not a requirement in child-proofing. "Gadgets" can assist parents in making certain that children are safe. Declining to own up to the parental responsibility of risk analysis & mitigation is not only a needless risk, but parental neglect.

<<What does any of this have to do with reducing risk by BF one's baby?>>
Absolutely nothing. If at first you don't succeed, try a new fallacy: Red Herring.

I have never seen anyone wear helmets when ice skating. Is this another new safety thing?
