Is Breast Best?

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

Oo here we go... wtf is this pile of shit if breastfeeding is meant to be a naice thing this programme so far is like a horror film! 5 mins in I've heard about the awful burning boobs seen a brand new baby covered in new baby goo and a toddler being breastfed (each to their own).....

I saw her talking about this on This Morning before I think she's struggling with her 'failure' to bf imo. I 'failed' to bf and it didn't matter. Oo cracking and bleeding nipples now...lovely to watch if you're pregnant and hoping to bf!

Wanting so badly to send a blanket of warmth and comfort to April and her family. The little chick.

Having done both, I can categorically state breast is best

Meglet · 02/10/2012 23:24

< waves back >

Yes its old, was filmed nearly two years ago now.

Still, seeing DS being so cute has cheered me up!

Cherry was lovely - when the cameras weren't on. She turns on this stupid persona, and its such a shame, because when we were just chatting, she was really nice.

smellsabit · 02/10/2012 23:33

good thinking meglet!

SirBoobAlot · 02/10/2012 23:39

Breast milk is £100 a litre, if you sell it privately. I donated some for a while, can't imagine ever accepting money for it though.

TalkingintheDark · 02/10/2012 23:45

Can anyone tell me the name of this prog so I can try and catch it on iplayer? got to go to bed now, thanks in advance

minesapintofwine · 02/10/2012 23:45

worra phew I was panicking then...

minesapintofwine · 02/10/2012 23:47

I really like this woman who breastfed for (shock horror Cherry) 11 months. She's great, a realist.

MakesCakesWhenStressed · 02/10/2012 23:48

Is breast best? Cherry Healey investigates

smellsabit · 02/10/2012 23:55

SirBoobAlot · 03/10/2012 00:03

Not aimed at anyone, just musing, really.

Sorry if it came across like that.

smellsabit · 03/10/2012 00:05

no probs ! x

BegoniaBampot · 03/10/2012 00:10

Caughtna little, but what I did see it came over as really annoying an patronising. Is BF really so weird, a big deal and eweee? she seems to be making it out to be really weird, difficult and unnatural and what was all that about doing it in public. I just can't relate to this picture of Bf at all.
