^I bf'd for 3months with her until basically milk ran out and/or she refused it bc preferred the consistant flow of her bottle
[ Reply | Options ]supply and demand, this is pretty common, as they feed more from the bottle you produce less and then they need more bottle and it's a vicious cycle.

[ Reply | Options ]is baby older now so you can put it in perspective? I know when my dd was an infant BF seemed like the end-all be-all and so important, but now she is 3 and I don't even think about bf vs ff anymore. I don't know which of her friends were BF and it do doesn't matter! you did the absolute best you could and that is all anyone can ask of a mother. 3 months of breastmilk is a lot more than many babies get!

When I ride in a taxi cab with my DC I:
- Use a carseat
- Buckle him/her in his/her own seat
- Hold him/her on my lap
- I'd never ride in a taxi with my DC, it's much too dangerous!
