[quote=Anonymous]People pressuring you to breastfeed unfortunately will be the norm. Look at this thread itself with the breastfeeding know it alls. Unfortunately you will have to be firm and shut it down. I told everyone with my second baby I wasn’t going to breastfeed. I was clear about it in labor. Once the baby came out the lactation consultant came in anyway. I was wheeled to my room and right in the board for feeding plan was breastfeeding. I erased it and put formula. Then I badgered the nurses non stop for formula. I went home and my post partum doula made me pump breastmilk and between the pressure I still ended up doing it despite my determination. What I am trying to say OP, is if you don’t want to breastfeed don’t. But there will be tons of pressure and you will just have to fend it off and be firm. [/quote]
