[quote=Anonymous]OP based on your post, you sound like the type who wants to do everything right and by the book. That’s fine - but it also puts you highly at risk of being sucked into the breastfeeding dogma world. There are any number of books, blogs, gadgets, and professionals more than happy to take up your energy and money in pursuit of the “goal” of breastfeeding. But feeding your child has no goal other than a happily fed child. Breastfeeding has minimal demonstrated benefits. Even if it is “best,” good parenting never means exhausting your resources to obtain ever-smaller increments of improvement. You’re probably not going to grow your own wheat to grind to make flour and bread … you’re going to buy a loaf in the store. Same for formula. If you like breastfeeding and have adequate supply - great! If not, formula is great too! Highly suggest you check out the Fed is Best blog and Facebook page for evidence bases infant feeding info.
