Why come on here and make “Breast is best” comments? We each ended up formula feeding as a result of a lot of thought and consideration. Just like you did not flippantly decide to breastfeed, we did not flippantly decide to formula feed. I am sure that, for a few of us, HAVING to go to formula a very difficult decision that was arrived at as a direct result of working very hard at breastfeeding and not succeeding. I BF my first daughter for 19 months. Don’t you think I might feel a bit of guilt for barely making it six weeks with my second? I’m not here to receive judgment, I’m here to find some great resources for lightening the financial burden of providing food for my child. Go somewhere else with your old rhetoric and judgmental attitude!

ditto :) My daughter has to be on soy milk and I have to take a presciption that would interfere in my own milk (why a I explaining?), so formula is a win-win and so are these offers!

best for a baby with a milk intolerance? I think not! :)

I am here for coupons, aren’t you? If you are breastfeeding and don’t need formula coupons, why stick around and comment? It isn’t necessary. My kids are well nourished and I am sure you couldn’t line up my kids or yours and tell who was fed what.
I am really sad that as mothers, we tear each other down with criticisms about who breast or bottle feeds, who works or stays home, etc. I am blessed to be a mother and would never stick my nose with “facts” said to soley make myself mightier and another person feel inferior. Please re-examine your motives here. Were you trying to convince us to breast feed? How would we begin that now?

No judgment, simply stating a fact : )

Stephanie, I couldn’t breastfeed my twins and was happy to have these coupons! Sure hope we aren’t starting to pass judgement here…breast is not always best for every situation. A happy, healthy and fed baby is what is best, is it not?

I have to formula feed my youngest bc of a brain tumor I had while pregnant. I breastfed my toddler till he was just about 2.
:) Anyway, I can’t get samples at my pediatricians right now bc they don’t have a formula rep currently! UGGH!

I breastfed all five of mine, but I know that’s not an option for all moms. I encourage everyone to at least give it an honest try if they’re able, but each mom needs to decide what works best for her personally. ;)
