I agree that it was unethical of MN to use the advert, but it has now been thouroughly debated. I for one am much more knowlegable about formula, the advertising ban and the cynical tactics of formula companies thanks to you and to this
debate.

This is what it's all about surely.

You all make excellent posts and spread wisdom on this wide forum. You provide a truly magnificent service to women from all walks of life.

I joined MN a couple of months ago and was so impressed because of women like you.

You are my favourite MNers. Please don't go. And if you do, let me know where you're going. Please.

Just hope I'm lucky enough to get a midwife like mears when it comes time to deliver this one!

Mears, we miss ya!

Hattie05 · 24/08/2005 22:20

I thought 'mears' was only her midwife name and that actually she posts under a different name when she just wants to be herself and not asked questions about breastfeeding etc.

So will both characters be leaving? or just mears.

Phew! Lockets. I'm glad to discover that reports of your departure have been greatly exaggerated. Possibly by me.
I'm trying to keep up with these marathon threads whilst cleaning house and packing for hols.

Spidermama, I totally agree .

Hopefully when the current Milupa/MN advertising contract has expired (unless it gets pulled sooner by trading standards ), that will be the end of the relationship and those lovely MNers will come back.

How do we know Mears etc are leaving? Where does it say it? Can anyone do a link as I havent been around for a while and have missed this.

SoupDragon · 24/08/2005 15:54

The advertising campaign has been accepted and paid for and will be staying.

Kayleigh · 24/08/2005 15:51

I haven't posted on any of the threads, and I haven't read them all the way through. But can anyone tell me if any of the mumsnet team have commented on the situation, and if so what they have said ?

expatinscotland · 24/08/2005 15:48

Damn! Don't go. Besides, the place won't be the same w/o moondog when she's on the piss .

QueenOfQuotes · 24/08/2005 15:47

ooo - didn't realise the list had grown (wry smile).
