I can understand the feeling of not fitting in, but with this thread - you both fall under the category of formula having a real benefit to your babies - it stopped

Plenty of very healthy people are/were formula fed. FF does NOT doom someone to a lifetime of bad health. My kids are all happy, healthy, intelligent people. Not a single one is overweight. All have been at or above grade-level developmentally forever.

Nutrition is just ONE aspect of raising a healthy child


And nutrition is just ONE aspect of breastfeeding...

Thank you for posting that info. I might try it tomorrow but I'm a little nervous. James has got these bright shiny new teeth and they're quite sharp. Learning with a newborn was already painful enough. Add teeth to the mixture and it's a little scary :)
