I was adopted too at 6 weeks so I was formula fed.

I was formula fed. My mom wanted to breastfeed, but she had to go on blood pressure medication after I was born and it wasn't compatible with breastfeeding.

I was formula fed. My mom had a hard time breastfeeding, and she didn't have access to the kind of support that we do now (lactation consultants, electric pumps, etc). If I hadn't been able to pump and work with a lactation consultant when my LO was born, I wouldn't still be breastfeeding either.

I was breastfed.
However, my father was formula fed because that was the big thing back then--and he turned out to be a genius (no really, he won one of those genius awards).

So... I guess both work just fine. But I'm still going to try to breastfeed!

I was breastfed until I was 4...years old...not months. That's right, I came home from school laid down in my moms lap and continued to drink. My whole entire family was traumatized by this and my mom did not want to go through this with my younger brother and sister, so they were formula fed. It was a running joke at our wedding. my sister did not Breastfeed for fear of this happening to her with her lo's.

I was breastfed (so were my 3 siblings) and so was DH and his siblings.

I was breastfed, but I formula feed my daughter. I just didn't want to breastfeed. I have some issues about my boobs, and I got fairly depressed when she was born, and it was just not the right thing for me to do. As an illustration of how random things are, I was a fairly sickly baby (started losing weight as a one year old), and my daughter is super healthy!
