I've got the link fixed now (changed the title over there after I'd scheduled the post over here). Now I see that overflow is not quite working, as the links in your comment are wonky (at least in Firefox). I think you have the perfect attitude now. Women should be able to choose what works for them. I admit that I am sometimes judgmental of women who <i>choose</i> not to breastfeed. I worked really, really hard to be able to breastfeed and sometimes it gets to me when a mom <i>chooses</i> not to. But I bite my tongue and remind myself that until I've lived their life, I can't say anything about the choices they make! Thanks, Sam.
