Thank you so much for all of the replys and I'm sorry that I havent replied sooner.... The kiddos have been very busy the past couple days but they're both napping now so hopefully I have a minute. To address the pp's response, I understand what you're saying about the bond that breastfeeding creates and the way I think of it ,which I think is what you're saying, is not that a breast fed child is MORE bonded just that they would have an additional difficulty when moved if they would not switch from breast to bottle. That problem, in our case, would be solved because he goes to daycare from 9-3 because I need to work so he would need to take a bottle and I would probably have to supplement with formula so he would be used to that too. I would also try to gradually switch him back to formula from a bottle when I knew that it was close to the time where he would be moved back with biomom (which in his case is not until ATLEAST December but most likely later) and they will tell me atleast a few weeks before he goes back that he's moving back. Unfortunatley the biomom is, as far as I know, at this point not clean (she was on methadone) and is also in a jail that is very far away from us so having her express milk is not an option and I honestly don't think that she would. So I guess I will have to see what the SW worker says. EZ2luv is right though, MA is HORRIBLEEEE to work with and our "county" is even worse so

I'll try to think positively but at this point I'm not super hopeful. Well thank you so so much for all of the replys and I would love to hear from anyone else who has any ideas or experiences with this.
