Personally I think the advantages and disadvantages depends on your point of view. If you see it from your baby’s, only advantages if you do express breast milk or directly latch on. BM is the best. The disadvantage kicks in if you see from the mother’s pov. We have to nurse/express every 2-3hours without fail. The pain from Breastfeeding is worse than contractions pain for me because it feels like forever. Basically, all mothers will want to go for BM cause it is the best with antibodies. However, due to some reasons, some would choose to formula feed or mix. If BM comes pain free, easy to have, no need to worry about supply and diet, time to pump or latch and basically as easy as formula then i think all will be breastfeeding already.
