Nature got this one wrong

After 6 weeks of breastfeeding, I have maintained the opinion that nature got this one wrong. It would be so much more efficient if both parents could feed the baby. Wouldn't it ensure a greater survival rate, or something?

Heck, there are species out there that share in the feeding responsibility. Take birds , for example. Both parents take turns feeding their babies. It's an equal relationship. That's the way it should be with us.

On the other hand... I suppose it is nice and convenient to not have to go out and hunt, eat, then regurgitate the food whenever my baby is hungry.
