Apparently bf babies are deprived of "Daddy Feeding Time"

[yellowrose]

Why oh why oh why do I google when I end up reading things like this ?

this

This is my favourite bit:

"In my opinion, bottle fed infants get something that breastfed infants often do not -- Daddy feeding time. I know that my husband and baby are infinitely closer because of those 3 am feedings, and snuggling close together in the middle of the night while bonding. Breastfeeding does not allow this possibility, although I am not saying that fathers to breastfed babies are not close to their children."

i think moondogs eye roll was also aimed at the article lulu... i don't think anyone disagrees with you!

Lulu,you paranoid loon!

WHAT a load of old shite the woman writes.
she is wildly inaccurate but tbh I can't really be arsed to refute some of her nonsensical statements.
and of course dads can bottle feed if a woman is bf.
der.

Pruni, I was speaking from my experience in comparison...I bf'ed es only for 4 month, got some tosh advice form my hp's, but swithced happily enough over, I really wasn't bothered, but eh feeding wasn't anything special, I ddin't experience it as amazingly special with him anyway, but that personal touch was gone then, too, iykwim...

kazbeth...that is the same for us here, or was...my Baby is now 2 1/2, and doesn't really apply for us now...but dh never enjoyed feeding the lil ones, neither, and I must admit, I didn't enjoy any nighttime feeds, neither, bottle or breast, although breast always had been a quicker way, lol!

the article is just so emotionally charged it has no logic, as with most other articles in this category

what about solids ? can daddy cook, serve and get excited about feeding a 6 month old solids ? why not ? this is also feeding isn't it ?

it seems to be that is only MILK feeding that is at issue here which makes it so emotional for the writer
