to think MN shouldn't support boots co-advertising newborn bottle sets and "follow on" milk

when there's a national campaign on to promote BF?

Presumably this advert passes the letter of the law regarding the non-advertising/non-special offers on formula for new born's but it defies the spirit in every way possible.

AIBU to expect a little more social responsibility from MN?

Direct your frustration towards the formula companies

I love you sir boob. I've seen you around NM for a few years now. But whilst I hate formula companies, they aren't the ones actually putting the bottles in babies mouths.

Not even Laurence fox can save this thread.

How selfish of women today. Doing what they can to become mentally well.

Isn't it shocking. Shock

Anyway it's not about skinnies any more, not really, more either the super skinny (see Paige Verdugo or Hoxton) or even better ones which are tight at the top and a proper flare at the bottom (see MiH Marrakesh)

JumpHerWho · 10/01/2013 22:07

Ohhh my DS is just 1 and hasn't seen snow, I can't wait to see his face if it does!!

saycheeeeeese · 10/01/2013 22:08

marianne and put another few hundred thousand women off bfing?

Great strategy.

PickledInAPearTree · 10/01/2013 22:08

It's not how it is. It's how it is in your own perspective.

Which is a tad extreme.

Please tell me neither of you are health care professionals? Shock

JumpHerWho · 10/01/2013 22:08

I hope my new Kurt Geiger boots are waterproof Hmm

catgirl1976 · 10/01/2013 22:08

I love snow :)

Moominsarescary · 10/01/2013 22:09

I hope it doesnt snow, I always fall over

chandellina · 10/01/2013 22:09

How is it Marianne? Women are selfish and harming their babies if they don't bf?

PickledInAPearTree · 10/01/2013 22:09

I'm in maternity jeans now.

What's going to be the jean of the summer do you think ?

Ill be going for a relaunch then.

PickledInAPearTree · 10/01/2013 22:10

And me moonmin. I can hardly walk as it is. Grin

JumpHerWho · 10/01/2013 22:10

I don't drive, and apparently I have walked so many miles with the buggy that I have worn out the wheels within 11 months and they have a 2yr warranty! Wish I'd got a milometer attached.

Anyway just as well I have new wheels if it's going to be snowy.

catgirl1976 · 10/01/2013 22:10

I like bootcuts even though they are hated on here Blush

PrettyHairClips · 10/01/2013 22:11

How ironic that those reporting me are actually the ones braking NM rules by spamming.

How about leaving the thread if the topic triggers you? I wonder why you would be attracted to topics that upset you so much.

wannaBe · 10/01/2013 22:11

I couldn't ever wear skinny jeans. ever. DS is hoping for snow; I am not.

PickledInAPearTree · 10/01/2013 22:11

I haven't got snow wheels.

MarianneM · 10/01/2013 22:11

I think people who choose not to BF for no reason are selfish, yes. Not necessarily harming their babies but I believe that most babies being formula-fed will have an effect on the nation's health.

Dawndonna · 10/01/2013 22:12

For those who fall in snow

PickledInAPearTree · 10/01/2013 22:12

I love a spam sandwich me. Haven't had one for ages.

wannaBe · 10/01/2013 22:12
