Did you make your decision to SAH/WAH/WOH ft/pt based primarily on objective/tangible factors, or with your heart?

In other words- you could have raised him- just not in the manner in which you'd have preferred- like I had said.

Excellent point.
It also happens to be one of the main reasons *I* SAH. I simply could not raise my children in the way I feel is best while WOH. That doesnt negate the fact that I still *could* raise them, if forced to WOH. It just wouldnt be ideal, IMO.

My experience is different. I had one kid who was fine with taking a bottle and one who would never take a bottle. That doesn't make it any more "false" than your own personal experience.
Just about every source I've ever heard of recommends introducing a bottle at around 6 weeks if you don't intend to exclusively breastfeed, simply because it is not an easy feat to get an exclusively breastfed baby to take a bottle if you don't. That's a generalization, and it's not false.
It certainly does.

Your welcome.

There is more to raising a child than them living,
