Formula Kills...
I have been told recently that, "Formula Kills!" What a horrible thing to say. Formula is not perfect. But we are blessed to live in a time when we have a viable alternative for mamas like me whose babies WOULD DIE without another source of milk. The only reason I'm sitting here typing is because I'm chained to the breastpump popping domperidone and doing everything I can to get every last drop of breastmilk in my baby. But apparently it's all for naught as FORMULA KILLS.
Argh. A little compassion, people. Not only that, but a little REASON. Formula is certainly better than giving a newborn cow's milk and karo syrup which is what used to be done.
You can be a lactivist without shoving hate out into the world. To me, being a lactivist is about loving our babies as best we can, and showing other moms how great it is by example. NOT by trying to shove lactivism down their throats by implying that they will KILL their babies if they don't breastfeed.
Here's a photo of my beautiful baby nursing with the lact-aid. Which has either formula or breastmilk in it, depending.
