My mum just texted me to say that tomorrow there is a documentary on BBC3 at 9pm called, "Is Breast Best?".

I predict a bunfight! Grin

So she breastfeeds her baby in the toilet but has no objection to getting her boob out on TV?

what?

SecretNutellaFix · 12/04/2011 21:41

Not Yay for feeling she needs to feed in the fecking toilet!

crikeybadger · 12/04/2011 21:41

OMG - what is she doing in a toilet? Sad

BunnyWunny · 12/04/2011 21:41

Hope that wasn't the disabled toilet Grin

ReshapeWhileDamp · 12/04/2011 21:41

Oh you are KIDDING ME!! Angry FFs. And to blow the whole object of privacy by filming it and sticking it on tv? Confused

At my local breastfeeding group (in an area where lots of people breasrfeed) there were 3 teenagers who breasfed (including one with special needs, they do it if the support is there).

Why is this girl feeding in the toilet????? FFS!!!!

BuckBuckMcFate · 12/04/2011 21:42

Why is she in the toilet??

Albrecht · 12/04/2011 21:42

Oh no poor Emma in the bloody toilet for 40 mins.

ReshapeWhileDamp · 12/04/2011 21:43

I can see that breastfeeding in front of a 'live audience' in a cafe might be more intimidating than in front of a camera, but she's being a bit daft all the same.

PDog · 12/04/2011 21:43

Sensible blokes

Albrecht · 12/04/2011 21:44

Boys don't mind! Oh Hoo-bloody-ray. What a fucking relief!

SecretNutellaFix · 12/04/2011 21:44

Oh God,

ReshapeWhileDamp · 12/04/2011 21:44

oi oi, babywearers. Here we go

ohanotherone · 12/04/2011 21:44

Yes Cherry, total shock at men supporting women feeding their babies!!!!

Secondtimelucky · 12/04/2011 21:44

Why is she in the toilet?

BuckBuckMcFate · 12/04/2011 21:45

They boys don't mind what the girls do? WTF?

And someone who can breastfeed is an earthmother???

Cherry, for example, is a ......... anyone??

CaptainNemo · 12/04/2011 21:45

someone give Emma one of those shawl-type-cover-thingies?!?!

Uh oh, here come the lactivists........... Confused

Albrecht · 12/04/2011 21:45

Emma seemed to think it might be illegal - like walking around topless? But its still only early days. I was a lot more uptight in the beginning.

PDog · 12/04/2011 21:45

Anyone going for a live chat with Cherry?

Feeding in the toilet - why?

You know what - I have recently returned to work and am expressing there. Had to attend a training course at a local hotel recently. Rang and explained I needed a room to express in. They weren't that helpful but agreed to sort me on the day. On the day noone could remember having this conversation with me, there were no free rooms, I had to explain my need to express 3 separate times to men who looked at me like I was mad. The hotel manager suggested the toilet............Eventually they found me a grotty room and guess what 10mins into expressing, I was interrupted by a cleaner trying to get in. By this time I was really upset. I burst into tears.

My manager complained to the course facilitator and the hotel. They sent me some chocolates.

Don't know why I am sharing this on here tbh. Just reminded me of that awful day and how BFing is seen as so 'other'.

BuckBuckMcFate · 12/04/2011 21:46

Ha PDog, was just wondering the same

peppapighastakenovermylife · 12/04/2011 21:47

I can't watch it....am watching it through this thread Grin

Albrecht · 12/04/2011 21:47

Ok lactivists not too mad (yet). Putting up 'Welcome to Breastfeed' stickers and donating milk to sick babies.

ReshapeWhileDamp · 12/04/2011 21:47

She's never heard of breast milk banks??

PDog · 12/04/2011 21:48

Sad fifitot.
