I can have respect for a woman who rearranges her life, manages her career,
has job/jobs arranged so she or husband is home with baby/children even if
alternating work schedules, and pumps when away from baby/child to maintain
breastfeeding into natural weaning without the use of supplements.
Now the trick is having a marriage survive that, the determination to
accomplish it and sanity intact would also be a plus. :)
I think learning to manage on one income is often easier to figure out than
the above. I can accept either however......and support BFing moms thru both.
