[quote=Anonymous]Mom of two elementary aged children here. Breastfeeding is not worth the stress. FED IS BEST. I was really hard on myself and caused myself immense anxiety breastfeeding my older child until she was 12 months old. With the second, I started supplementing with formula very early on and switched 100% around 6 months and oh my god, life was so much easier! I desperately wish I had a do-over with number one and could go back and supplement with formula. I don't know what I was thinking. Also, FWIW, kid #2, who was mostly formula fed, is the one that is in AAP, gets perfect grades, and is a really good soccer player, while #1 who was 100% breastfed did not get into AAP and continues to be behind in math and english and requires hundreds of dollars in tutoring every month, and hates sports. So, the education/smarts/strong body advantage of breastfeeding was NOT the case in our family.[/quote]
