congratulations to our winner Debbie D. Breastfeeding should be YOUR choice and if it is WIN breastfeeding and bottle feeding essentials from Evenflo Feeding from us!
Nineteen years ago I was an overwhelmed, terrified first-time mom lying in a hospital bed after almost 24 hours of labor at a teaching hospital, where it seemed like my vagina was open for business and public viewing. Suffice it say, I was exhausted and when a La Leche representative walked into my room and began to rattle off how important it was for me to start breastfeeding as soon as possible; I begrudgingly obliged.
Although I had planned to formula feed — and even bought the bottles I had planned to use — the breastfeeding cheerleader was not going to let me go without a fight. After several minutes of indoctrinating me with guilt, I succumbed to the pressure to be a dutiful mother and give my baby the best possible start — which she implored me would not be possible if I chose formula over breast milk.
Those first two months were brutal my daughter seemed unable to latch on properly and we had a bit of an adjustment period which was consisted of me sobbing for the better part of most days. My inability to breastfeed had me feeling completely inept that something as natural as breastfeeding felt like the most unnatural and trickiest part of motherhood for me.
I also craved my pre-baby body back, and felt that I’d done my part to house my daughter for nine months- during which time I swore off coffee, diet soda and the hardest sacrifice; letting my blonde highlights fade to brown . I was honestly ready to reclaim my body-and allow my husband equally shoulder the feeding responsibilities.
And yet- the opposition I experienced from other mothers, as well as my La Leche local chapter- was akin to my basically denying my baby the sustenance she rightfully deserved. I felt so incredibly guilty for wanting to choose formula over breast milk, so I soldiered on for three more weeks until my cracked, raw nipples had reached their limit. And still years after the fact, I feel guilty.
Of course with the perspective of many years I realize one thing- breastfeeding is a CHOICE. There are NO right or wrong choices.
But if You do decide to breastfeed luckily there are some breastfeeding products that make life easier for breastfeeding mothers and the best part we are GIVING THEM all AWAY! keep reading for breastfeeding and bottle feeding essentials from Evenflo Feeding and how you can win them all!

Breastfeeding should definitely be a choice and women should be shamed for not doing it! I adopted both of my girls so obviously didn’t birth them and STILL I got crap from a lady that ran a baby car basics class I took that I wasn’t at least going to try to see if my body would or see a lactation specialist!

Breastfeeding is a choice. Absolutely. And it whatever the mother decides. They’re still a great mom.
Nice article! I can say that breastfeeding is absolutely a choice because a mom’s milk is the best food to give to our baby.
Evenflo is such a great company that provides good products for the needs of all moms and babies.
My daughter tried to breastfeed twice and it really wasn’t something she enjoyed or that was easy for her or the babies. I was proud of her that she switched despite the naysayers. I say do you, because ultimately you know what’s best for your family.
That is a really nice set. I love it. I wish I would have had something nicer like this when I had my daughters.
Breastfed is a mother’s choice.. They are still perfect moms doesn’t matter what they choose
I enjoyed breastfeeding my babies and it was definitely my choice. I actually used Evenflo products as well.
While I chose to breastfeed my babies, it isn’t always the right choice for everyone. I hope that every mom feels supported in the decision she makes when it comes to feeding her baby.
