I do not condemn those who do not breast feed, but sometimes I look at people who do bottle feed just because it soots them better (not the baby), or they just DON'T WANT to. That to me is not right, but anywho, you know I've had my many bouts of infections during nursing, the good ole mastitis, and yet I suffer through it just because I know it's good for the little one. But I have not had any problems with kids not gaining weight (although I do believe conner and caleb are about on the same growht pattern and conner was born at an average weight, he's just a little guy!), anywho, what I'm getting at is atleast you gave it a TRY! that's all that's needed and then if it's just NOT working or the baby is suffering, it's totally OK to do what ever you need to! So don't let anyon else tell you differently! We love you guys and are just glad that you have a thriving happy baby!The Pyne'shttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10010479247309986809noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4213499219669709454.post-70178760352870422042009-05-29T07:10:41.264-07:002009-05-29T07:10:41.264-07:00You put the thoughts I have had into such great wo...You put the thoughts I have had into such great words! Thanks for your insight, and I know these kids will grow up "normal" no matter how they get fed. I am glad that soy worked for you and Leah.

They literally starved to death because they could handle regular milk. It isn't for everyone. So everyone do what's right for you.S and RA Beazerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14242224604594841880noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4213499219669709454.post-31214877403615716522009-05-28T18:00:50.259-07:002009-05-28T18:00:50.259-07:00AMEN!

But he was of course premature and too weak to latch. He had a feeding tube and breathing issues, that I knew it would not work out. I kind of have expected with my next one, if it doesn't work out, oh well. My kids are fine and the next one will be too no matter what I choose to do.K Harkerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04112127488898381218noreply@blogger.com
