Kurant -- I had the opposite problem with my eldest. My doctor and daycare providor both encouraged (forced is more the correct word) to formula feed as I went back to school just nine days after he was born. (Long story, basically didn't want to be a welfare mom and am happy with my decision.) If I had to do it again, I would stand up to both and pump and breastfeed. The basic message here -- do what works for you. As long as you are loving and dedicated parents (which it sounds like you are) your child will do fine.
