Breast feeding : Please go see your pediatrician before you give up. There are remedies that can help. The real test of effective breast feeding is your baby's weight gain. Let that help guide your decision too. Health departments can also help with breast feeding counselors who can give you some good coaching. Formula feeding is fine but breast milk is cheaper and comes ready to feed. Best wishes!
