Breastfeeding is stupid

I decided not to breastfeed my sons. The first one did fine with baby formula, but the second one almost died because of so many allergies/reactions to different formulas. Of course, it was too late to breastfeed since I received the injection in the hospital to "dry up breast milk".

He (and I) went through torture for the first month of his life - 2 different pediatricians told me he would not make it. He has suffered from numerous allergies and asthma (and still does) after that first horrible month.

If I had only known, I would have breastfed without a doubt. Not stupid in my opinion. (unless you are the lady on the cover of the magazine)
