In answer to the question of pumping milk, why would I want to lug a diaper bag heavy with bottles, especially when the bottles have to be chilled and then reheated? What am I supposed to do at the store? With breastfeeding, I had the stuff in convenient packaging at just the right temperature!

(And I've had children exclusively bottlefed, one exclusively breastfed and one that took both. Trust me, breastfeeding's the easiest.)
I've never had a problem with lugging bottles of milk around. It's what you do when you don't breast feed.
