Nope! my mom said she was "too old" (40 and 41 for me and my sister). Never mind that when she was 20 and had my older sister she didn't breastfeed either. She said it just was not "in fashion" during that time

I was for a long time (at least 9 months), and my husband had formula from day 1. My husband was by far, a healthier child than either my brother or I (who were both ebf) and has fewer allergies now than I do.

I was EBF with a shield until 6 months, but she hated using the shield, so I was solids and ff after that. She did EBF my twin sisters for 13 months though!
I'm not sure how long DH was EBF. It was at least 3 months

I was EBF for the first six months then a mixture of solids and BF from there on out. My mum EBF all three of us but none of her sisters (5 of them) ever had a problem with supply. My aunt had so much milk that when she had my cousins she was both EBFing them and providing donor milk that was EBFing another child as well!
