- I'm shocked at how many people have problems breast-feeding. There are many nurses who will understand, and there are many who will basically try to make your wife cry if her body isn't reacting. It blew my mind how many have the attitude that not being able to breast feed is because you aren't trying hard enough. If you have to supplement with formula don't let a**holes get you down. Yes breast-feeding is better but don't let the boob nazis sink their teeth too far into you.

Boob-Nazis... haha. I have to let my wife know that. She would appreciate it.
