I could not breastfeed. I tried, and my son was starving. My very pro breastfeeding pediatrician told us to immediately formula feed him. He had lost a pound his first week. He was crying constantly. My boobs were blocked up and hard and sore. I had a fever.

My heart goes out to you - I wish it had been easier for you - it was even hard reading. That said, in an emergency setting if a higher percentage of women were nursing, them women in your spot - women who really needed formula for their babies. would have formula available.

Won’t disagree with that. I hope the women who can nurse help those that are having trouble.

I feel sorry for new parents. The young were duped by the left.
