In a word, Yuck!

And even worse, they probably thought they were being supportive!

More time was spent on the "disadvantages" which for some reason included
diarrhea!

The pedi went on and on about how time consuming it was for mothers of
multiples and practically said they deserve a medal if they can do it.
She also said that if you don't start breastfeeding in the first couple of
weeks you CAN NOT.

None of the really terrific advantages were even mentioned, like obesity
prevention, IQ, leukemia, etc.  Only the very old tired ones like losing
weight, getting your uterus back to normal, reducing breast and cv cancers,
etc.

Sigh, well, at least there were some advantages listed.
