I get plenty of laughs when I tell moms that saying "I breastfeed until I
run out of milk, then give him formula," is like saying "I breathe until I
run out of air, then I use an oxygen tank."  Then they understand that
they've got the process *backwards* in their minds.  Breathe IN ORDER to
have oxygen.  Breastfeed in order to have milk......*sigh*.......
