I just discovered this was a board after posting on the BF board and them wanting no part of my formula talk...understandably so lol
I originally asked how efficient it was to exclusively pump and was given a lot of cons on it other than the baby actually getting breast milk. My dilemma is that BFing is just not for me so now I'm considering going formula from the start.
ANOTHER question...H & I recently took a parenting class and we were told that there are some infants that will die from formula but was never given a reason why and I was shocked.
SO...I'm just wondering with all that information, what is the pros/cons of it all?
