Having so many different experiences has led me to many resources and it seems LLL and others believe breastfeeding is an all or nothing thing. I too believe anything that makes Mom and family relaxed makes baby's beginning that much better. Worrying about baby gaining,plugged ducts,mastitis,wet diapers or anything else related to nursing undermines the experience. It's just as bad as counting the oz. Do both if it works for you.
Nothing is written in stone.
