Young parent, irked me!

Another story from my clinic..
A young mother came to my clinic with her husband ;
Complaining that their newborn baby is having on and off fever
I checked the baby, no fever.  temperature is normal. No sign of infection. But I can see fluid coming out from the little baby nose

Then I asked the mother. ( the baby is a month old)
" how is ur breast milk production?  is the baby sucking well?"
She answered...  " susu ade.. Tapi biasa bagi susu botol.. Senang sket nanti nak tinggal bile nak keje"
My goodness!
This young parent really irked me
I would understand if they r not educated
But this people has degree n diploma
Went to collage but still didn't understand the need of mother breast milk
Still refuse to breastfeed their baby because of stupid reason.
Then when ur baby is easily sick, easily infected by bacteria n virus.. U asked the doctors why?
What is wrong with my baby?
The one who is wrong is u!
U r the reason ur baby is not having enough antibody!
U r the idiot who refused to give ur baby the essential nutrient!
What the heck
Young kids nowadays.. 
" buat anak pandai, dah ade anak menyusahkan orang"
Sorry for being harsh
But I am against bottle feeding for babies under 6 month old
Unless there are medical reason why the mother is unable to breastfeed..  for example if u are a hiv positive mother.. Then there is no need to feed ur baby with ur milk.
Other than that.. Ur breast milk is meant for u newborn , genius !!

found about this blog. haha keep it up doc! there are actually many moms (educated ones) who choose to feed their babies with formula milk.

not enough awareness, perhaps?
