[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Four months is when breastfeeding becomes faster (feeding times can cut in half or even less), easier, the flexibility kicks in (you can feed on the go - literally while on a hike, out and about, etc, nobody can tell, and no bottles to deal with) so your life becomes more flexible than if you were on formula. Quitting at four months is putting in the investment and not reaping the rewards. Just my two cents. [/quote] This is not there for everyone. There are still babies at this age who struggle with latching or take forever to nurse. What about the moms who have low supply or baby has weight gain issues? The stress that goes into breastfeeding and worrying if you make enough is a lot to deal with. I tried hard to breastfeed with both of my kids but found bottle feeding so much easier. I would take washing bottles once a day and buying formula over the stress of worrying if my baby is getting enough to eat. [/quote]
