When I was pregnant, I knew I wanted to breastfeed, but I was thinking I would pump and use bottles. I read some books on breastfeeding and ended up strictly breastfeeding from the nip. I don’t like formula. Nothing can compare to breastfeeding. Of course, if you can’t, than a homemade alternative or a milk bank would be best. Thanks for the post of exposing this. So many mothers still choose formula due to convenience.
