I would not push anyone into doing what they didnt want to do, I would tell them its their choice and up to them how to feed their baby some babies do not take to the breast at all. I have breast fed 3 of my children 1st - 6months 2nd -11 1/2 months and 3rd 7 weeks i would have continued to feed my daughter, my midwife supported me and helped me my daughter still kept having a bottle inbetween breastfeeding as i didnt think she was getting enough in the end i gave up coz she would just not settle.
