I agree Heather. It can be a tough row to hoe. Especially when an
overwhelmed new mom, who is faced with the beginnings of the reality of caring for
a baby, even with lots of help in those couple of days in the hospital,
begins to realize that this mothering thing is going to actually involve her
time, personal space, and selflessness, decides to use formula, but feeling
conflicted and seeking permission, finds the LC and gets up the courage to
ask - with a pleading look in her eyes, "isn't formula just as good for my
baby as breastmilk?"
