I don't think that a new mom (or dad) should be made to feel guilty for not brestfeeding. There are enough adjustments to make when you have a baby, especially your first. Just speaking for myself, I didn't like breastfeeding. It hurt, and was more of a separation between my husband and I. Also, the increased prolactin levels cause some women's libido to take a nose-dive. Unfortunately, some pediatricians and obstetricians - and women - are almost fanatical about breastfeeding.
