my MIL just informed me that new research was published this week that said actually formula is better for babies! Really? Has anyone seen it? I asked her where she saw it and she said it was all over the news.

Nope, not seen it. Don't believe it either.

Bottle one week, breast another.

Just another way to bash mothers and guilt them into feeling more... guilt!

MILs and bottle feeding in the same thread?

Seriously, that discovery is never going to be made. Never.

I don't believe my MIL. I just don't understand why some people don't support breastfeeding!

Breast!

I keep typing things on here and thinking better of it. Obviously my MIL has an opinion on bf, which is a shame as I will continue to bf my baby for his year.

maybe she doesnt like that she doesnt get to feed baby so is trying to get you to FF so she can do it.

I understand that there was something in the news this week about vitamin D, saying that if you breast feed beyond 6 months you should give your baby Vitamin D supplements. But if you formula feed there is no need as it is in formula already. I don't think it doubted that breast feeding is understood my many to be best [tried to word not to offend].
