[quote=Anonymous]I am a SAHM, so for me it was worth it for the convenience - 6 weeks of pain vs a year of not having to make bottles, pay for formula, or remember to bring milk for the baby where I went. I worked briefly with my oldest, and had I not known I would be going back to staying at home after those 6 weeks, I would totally have quit nursing. Personally, I doubt that BF is a better bonding experience than FF. If anything, bottles would probably have forced me to put down the kindle and pay more attention to the babies. I also think the nutritional benefits are largely oversold, especially after the first month or so. I did find that it helped me lose the baby weight, though, so there's that, but I know for some people it seems to have the opposite effect. [/quote]
