What have you "given up" in order to have and parent children?

I found bottle feeding much easier than breastfeeding as I didn't have to always do it and could

Wow-didn't your dd JUST have a severly high fever just a couple of weeks ago and all the kids were sick also on top of her?


And, weren't they just sick a couple of months ago before with the same thing?

Well formula has been out for a very long time so it can't be that bad. I was formula fed and turned out just fine as did many others I know so I never thought twice.

Google "benefits of breastfeeding". If you want specifics, I'm sorry, but I don't keep a file on you, so I don't know anything about your kids.

Because I believe it is. Something I did say before.

Wouldn't know. I trust her and have been using her for many, many years. My son has grown and developed perfectly for his age (as per the drs) and weaning him earlier than my dd had no affect whatsoever.

I rested during the time I would have otherwise been washing bottles, buying bottles, and packing bottles and formula to go places. :)

Just kidding. It was a lot less work, at least IMO. My primary concern was not picking the easiest method, though, so it doesn't really matter.
