I get to reading these things and it gets me worked up for myself and for other moms who would read garbage like this. You're right on the last point too...Aidan probably would hate them. :-) You’re right Stacey.

Everywhere you go, you'll find a mother who is superior to you in some way... in her mind. Don't waste your breath (well, your fingers) trying to justify the things you did that you felt were best for YOUR child and YOURSELF. These women have never gotten over the "my daddy can beat up your daddy" arguments in elementary school, so they have to make themselves martyrs in some way or another. They think that natural is the only way to go, and hey, that's great for them. You did what was best, all around. So did I. So do most mothers. If another mother doesn't realize that, they can go... well, nevermind. So forget about it. Be the best mom you can be. Don't worry about the ones who think they'd be better moms - Aidan would probably hate them :) Oh honey, forget about it.
