Yeah, I told my husband that if my child doesn't bond with me, then we have some major issues aside from breastfeeding!Originally posted by Glacier
I'm always amazed at the things people will say to pregnant women! They'd never say anything similar under other circumstances.
I'm sure you know what will work best for you and your baby. As for the not bonding crap... I think we are close to the same age--when I was born, women were encouraged not to breast feed. I wasn't a breastfed baby and my mom and I bonded just fine! 30 odd years later we still have a great relationship!
People also often ask me "Was it planned?" I am tempted to say "No, it was a total mistake. In fact, we're not even sure who the father is."
