Eek. I agree with ironmama. For me personally, I plan to breast feed my baby, but probably no longer than 4 months maybe even stop at 3 as far as directly to the breast goes...I'll try pumping and supplementing after this. Just my preference. I feel those first months are the vital ones to their development and soon after 4 months, most children are introduced to rice formula...if they like it, that is. To me, it's a little weird to have your child be at the age where they can ask for the boob.
