I agree. And, just in case you aren't able to breastfeed (low milk supply, baby reacts negatively to your milk, etc.), don't feel bad if you have to switch to the bottle.
I ended up switching to the bottle with both my kids. And, although I would've liked to have breastfed them exclusively, that just wasn't possible with us. Did I feel guilty? Yes. Is it fair that women are made to feel like failures if they give their babies formula? Absolutely not. But, I've discovered that not much in the world of motherhood is fair.
Oh, and AF... formula = alcohol?!? WTF??? I'd've had a really hard time not giving that coach a piece of my mind.
Back to the diaper story... if one of the concerns motivating this is environmental, then by god, use cloth diapers!
And quit having your kid pee on trees.
