Dear MN Towers re bottle feeding/breast feeding.....

Is there any way there could be a topic for each? Because I really do think that half the rucks on here start because the two are lumped together, and really they have nothing to do with each other.... FF who get upset about BFing threads could then hide the whole topic and vice versa.

Anyone agree? Or not - without starting a FF v BF debate?

In either I suppose FAQ. I just think there are some people (including me) who get quite het up about the whole thing and I would love to able to hide FFing threads but I can't.

think whitenoises's idea is a good one, as often "weaning" encompasses how to wean off the breast/bottle as well as weaning onto food.

No I don't think that's a good idea, what about mixed feeders? People who want advice on switching from BF to FF - which one do they post in?

or rename it feeding your baby and have weaning in there too?

a very good idea.

if you're bf it would be nice to get support and a pat on the back if you've struggled through adversity without getting the feeling that others may think you're smug.

equally would be nice if ff to get advice on bottle feeding issues.
