Oh, come on.  We breastfeeding moms have to bring our own supplies too!
;-)  They're just more transportable.  It's not our (or society's) fault
that the natural process is easier, and I don't think we should be
trying to make the artificial one easier for moms who "choose" to go
that route.

I'd even venture to say that if a mom forgot to bring her formula, I
wouldn't have qualms in asking the dad to go get some, thus making him
realize early on too, that he may end up missing out on some bonding
time by not being there (instead, he's off to get formula at the store).
