Ugh, yes. I belong to a Mom's Club with many pro-breastfeeding women, and they can be very annoying with their attitude. Every woman who didn't breastfeed wasn't properly educated, didn't know all the benefits, didn't try hard enough, yada yada.
I tried. I know all the benefits. I'm not an uneducated moron. I produced nothing but a few drops. I had one child in the NICU who nearly died at birth, and one that couldn't latch due to my nipples being flat (who knew?). I pumped, she was starving. Yes, I gave her formula. No, I never even tried to BF Ainsley, she had enough going on. No, I'm not even going to try to BF our next child.
Sorry, you hit a sore spot!
