We didnt breast-feed mini-me.... my wife just didnt want to.

We got comments from time to time but fuck 'em. No matter what the reason, how you rear your precious little one is your own business...

Don't ever let women like that get under your skin or judge you!! ever!!. Its hard when someone attacks your parenting style not to get royally pissed but trust me their moment will come. One day the perfect bubble will burst and lets hope they judge themselves just as harshly as they do the rest of the world.

Your a fabulous mama, you did try and as long as a mother is willing to try her best for her baby whether it is breast or bottle the important thing is it is done with LOVE!!.

Im on the flip side of the judgement coin I am still breast feeding mine and she is 15 months. I had planned on weaning but we are making a move all the way across the freakin country and I want her to know she still safe and secure so I am allowing her to feed until we get ourselves settled in to our new life.

I was told outright by a close family member "shes to old to be breastfeeding, Your going to turn into that crazy lady who breastfeeds her 8 year old, when I see you next Im going to give her chocolate milk". I also had a c*nty coworker say "your still breastfeeding, wow that will be fun when her teeth come in".

Add that to the recurring comedies (I can count 3 off the top of my head) with the toddlers breastfeeding and the disgust everyone has on these shows and it gets a bit annoying.

But as Mothers only we know what is best for our babies so I say f*ck the judgey granola moms and in my case the single women with no clue!!.

If women would support each other more and try to help each other instead of turning everything into a bullsh*t high school style competition the world would be a much better place.

I could rant about the judgements of the self-righteous parent ALL f'king day. Have opinions. Keep them (and the associated noises and facial expressions) to yourself.
Also, I think the Mormons are sweet but misguided. They're still looking for me too.

Abso-frackin'-lutely! My wife wasn't able to produce even as much as you did for our daughter, and rather than let her starve to death, we switched to (gasp!) formula pretty early on. The judgemental looks and comments some people give are just disgusting.

And as for the Organic-everything-etc folks, all I can say is that it must be nice to have so much money that those options are open. Because for so many of us on modest incomes, it ain't. Period. You do the best you can, but that's it.

So true. SO TRUE.
The note "sometimes its NOT a choice" made me burst into tears.
