If I had to do it all over again, I would breast feed. I can't even tell you now why I chose not to except that I thought Playtex Nursers looked cool, LOL! Give me some leeway, I was only 19. I see how it would be a special bonding sort of thing.
One of the girls I work with just stopped breast feeding because it was getting to be difficult at work with leaking and stuff. We went on a business trip together with some men and some of the time outs I took with her were hard to explain. I just couldn't bring myself to tell the program director who is a retired Army Colonel, "Excuse me, we need to find a plug so we can pump some breast milk!" Poor thing. She was in and out of pain for two days. We would have to find a place to pump at any opportunity and there weren't many. Actually, this trip was a special bonding experience for us. We still laugh about the time we disappeared at the Montgomery Airport to find a Ladies room with an outlet. We never did explain that one!
