[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]After the first week or so, I didn't have physical issues with breastfeeding (and FWIW, I have {or at least had} tiny flat nips). BUT..my child ended up having a ton of protein intolerances through breastmilk, though, including severe reactions to soy and legumes, so there's basically no guarantee I could've formula fed even if I had wanted to (would have required really expensive Rx formula, and even then it might not have worked). My original goal was to aim for six months of nursing and we made it ~16 months. Kiddo has no food allergies and has been super-healthy. Weaning was a breeze. Just one additional wrinkle to consider - the possibility that you'll *have* to breastfeed.[/quote] Why would she “ have” to breastfeed? She can formula feed. [/quote]
