I know the best way to feed a baby is nursing them the natural way, I can't remember which way I was fed, but I am sure it was the natural way (if you know what I mean.) Do you know whether you were bottle fed or the natural way. And which one would you prefer for your children? My children was fed from a bottle now I wonder did I do the best thing, the have never felt the tenderness of a mothers nursing, I had to bring them up on a bottle because I had to work.

Hi Chevee, I know I had it on a natural way as well as my Sister! My Mothes is a full time housewife so it was not difficult for her to do it!

My baby boy was put in intensive baby care for the first three weeks of his life. When I came to see him he wouldn't latch on, however I expressed milk for him at home. The hospital lent me an electric expressing machine to use. It made me sore and it pinched me quite tightly. I had to let my baby son have bottle feeding because of the situation. My natural milk supply dried up, once ny bay son came home I needed to care for him, not express my milk. My sister has fed each of her children in the natural way. I regret not having done this with my two children. I was bottle fed when I was a baby, my mum told me.

Hi Chevee, I was brought up on natural way, but I never had any children so I wouldn't know about these things, my sister brought up her twins babies on the bottle because she couln't natural them as she went dry but it did not make a difference with bonding, they bonded very well with my sister, they are now in their 30s boy and girl twins.

I do not know about me but my brother just used bottle and he is strong as a bull! The day I have a kid if I have one I will feed him with bottle no doubt about it and I hope nobody try to convince me otherwise like I heard that nurses do in hospitals! LOL
