Is Breast Best?

78 replies

WorraLiberty · 02/10/2012 22:33

A programme just about to start on BBC1 where some woman called Cherry Healey speaks to women who are for or against it.

Just thought someone might be interested?

"But where is your AIBU question Worra?" I hear you all cry.

Well (and I'm being serious) AIBU to be freaked out that my Jack Russel Terrier has just said the word "Redbridge" 3 times in row?

He's never spoken before?? Confused

Actually on cereal... I so wouldn't. Would you? My nan ate my breast milk accidentally but I wouldn't really give it away willingly

No I don't think I could.

Which is weird considering we drink cows breast milk on our cereal...

worra that is awful awful awful. The thing on BBC Wales now though is about the twins with Fields syndrome. I had to look on wiki!

RubyFakeNails · 02/10/2012 22:58

Have just got to the cereal bit.

Can't face anymore. Yuck.

I'll be off to try and get some conversation out of my dogs.

meme Shock what does breast milk taste like I should imagine quite sweet like buttermilk but not as sweet as formula which is quite sugary tasting don't ask how I know it's no wonder babies like milk!

I think it's making her feel crap because she couldn't do it to be honest.

Mind you, she was desperately trying to get the Doc to justify her decision to stop and he wouldn't.

mememummy · 02/10/2012 23:09

I would like to hear a talking dog, more interesting than other people's feeding choices

Bm tastes awful, so does formula imo

LittleprincessinGOLDrocks · 02/10/2012 23:10

Why didn't that lady smack her? lol

mememummy · 02/10/2012 23:11

meme ha ha bless her! Did you tell her? That programmes coming on here in a minute-not going to be very anamoured with the group who 'thinks it's the only option' I can tell. Plus not that fussed on Cherry Healey. May not bother....(bigger fish to fry,worse happens at sea, as long as babies are fed any way etc...)

minesapintofwine · 02/10/2012 23:13

meme cross post! Yes me too prayers all round here. Sad

arthurfowlersallotment · 02/10/2012 23:13

Woo my name is Cherry and I used to do shots and go to parties but then I had a baby and now I stay in more woo.

Does she think she's the only fucking one?

Yadnbu Worra. Your dog is speaking in code. You must decipher it quickly.

mememummy · 02/10/2012 23:15

Exactly a happy healthy mum And baby is all that matters at the end of the day x
