Gwar.  Yeah, my basic stance on breastfeeding is:

1) I really want to;
2) if I can't, then I'll formula-feed, because breastfeeding is less important than a non-starving baby;
3) stress of the mother is way worse than formula feeding; and
4) fucking step off if you* have a goddamn problem with this.

* Generic you, not you-you, naturellemente.

What you will hear: "That sun is shining right in your baby's eyes!"
Who will say it: A total stranger who resents your control over the direction of the sun.
Why she is saying it: You caused the sun to shine right in your baby's eyes.
What you should do: Thank the stranger for saving your baby's eyes, and shift the angle of the sun so that it no longer shines directly in your baby's eyes. Even though your baby is sleeping and her eyes are closed. (Also: run away.)

I find the Dr. Sears baby book a lot less fucked up than most, but I'm a crunchy intactivist lactivist AP nazi, so hey. He's still a bit too mainstream for me, but he's an allopath, so what can I expect?

Heh heh, my SIL is an attachment parenting Nazi. Her oldest is 13 and she and her mother both still act as if she's 3. When she really was 3, my SIL went off on me for letting the kid see me take a multivitamin. She doesn't want the kid to think taking pills is OK, multivitamins are poison because of the dye, on and on. I pointed out that she's not one to talk about putting poison in your body because she smokes, thinking it would shut her up, and it DIDN'T.
