....be aware of this first:
most likely you will encounter more people offering their opinion to you without you having to ask than with any other milestone of your life. I have never been so shocked by advice from strangers or offended by rude remarks from people I do know when I never even asked for their opinion. Everyone has their own ideas and thinks they know best. Not all of those people push their ideas on you, but so many of them do. I have had everything from someone misquoting the Bible to try to persuade me to come to their same conclusion, to a stranger warning me that people can get a yeast infection on their nipples from breast feeding! I even have had obese people tell me I am getting too fat! This is going to happen to all of us pregnant women at one point or the other, so just be prepared! Also, remember all the unsolicited advice you received the next time you run across a pregnant woman with different outlooks than yours. The flip side is that you will hopefully also receive wonderful advice, willingness to listen to your ideas too, and a whole lot of support from wonderful friends and family members like I have as well.

I call some mama's "earthy moms" by their opinions because some of them are so "out there." Getting told I'm abusing my son because I am going to vaccinate him to getting emails about some unsafe bottles that aren't BPA approved. Sometimes it's just too much but I feel like an awful mom too be because I didn't know about this beforehand but when I think about it, it really is what you want for your baby like you said. I know people are trying to help but sometimes mama's need to stop reading the internet. There's just too many crazy theories out there!.
