Again, I don't see anything in this article either where it is a scientific fact that a breastfed child is receiving more cuddling, touch, gazing, talking to and interaction in general compared to a bottle fed child. It is merely a break down of chemical information that results from breastfeeding.
Hey, that's great, I get it. I get the hormone thing all the way...BUT IT DOES NOT VALIDATE, IN ANY WAY, YOUR CLAIM.
"Bottle propping" and "feeling guilty", my isn't that a bit of a stretch? I never propped a bottle for a child, and I am sorry to disappoint, I do not, and never have, felt guilty about bottle feeding my children.
And never once did I have to "concentrate" or make a concerted effort to make sure I stroked, touched, soothed, talked to and interacted with them, it came quite naturally as it does with most mothers regardless of how they feed their children.
You are grasping for anything at this point to deflect everyone away from the fact that you made a ridiculous statement under the guise of scientific or medical fact.
You have no clue how I interacted with my children when they were newborns, toddlers, tweens, adolescents and as adults. So how can you make yet another claim that you do it more and do it better?
