Well I get to be the exception today.  I chose BFing because I am inherently
lazy.  It is just so much easier to do.  :-)  I also remember reading a
*Weekly Reader* article in middle school about La Leche League and BFing.  I
had an *a-ha!* moment - this is what breasts are for and how you feed
babies.  My younger sister and I weren't BF.  I had never to my knowledge
seen it happen before.
