To find breastfeeding a 2 yr and 3 month old unsettling and slightly repulsive?

[Thinkingpositively]

I am guessing this thread might upset some people but really...? DH and i were shocked to learn someone we know is breastfeeding a child who can walk and speak and self determine...dh wouldn't discuss it over lunch...

you'd have to rip your own brain out if you visited me and my 2yr 4mth old - when do you want to come - oh do come round :)

yabu - it is sweet FA to do with you - you sound like you have a repulsively narrow mind

When pg with dc1 I remember seeing a small child bfing, and saying to my friend at the time that he seemed too old to do that as he could walk. Dc1 comes along a few months later, and happily fed for at least a year after he could walk - it's easy to have opinions about bf when you aren't actually bfing anyone, it all seems a lot more natural when it's your baby and you understand what they want and need!
I also thought dummies were gross and reins unnecessary. And thought I'd use cloth nappies. You live and learn

Dog shit on the pavement is repulsive. Breast feeding your infant is natural, healthy behaviour. I suggest you check out the definition of repulsive, and while you're about it, look up stupid.

Hahaha.

Please do get over it. Unless they're asking you to get involved, your opinion needs to be kept to yourself.

There are so, so many distressing things to be shocked/repulsed/worried by, it really is a ridulous waste of your energy to give brain space to the feelings you experience on hearing an acquaintance is using her mammary glands for their primary physiological purpose.

Lol, people who say bf a toddler is 'forcing' them Really!!??? Can anybody really force a toddler to do any damn thing!

A child feeding to a natural healthy age that's well within the age range humans are designed to breastfeed for is repulsive to you?

But a baby drinking the milk of an animal as far removed from us physiologically as a cow or goat is perfectly normal?

Let me guess, your husband is one of those fine specimens who believes breasts are sexual accessories

Feenie moron? Explain.

Oh god Maryz! 'nawzyated' just made me spit my drink across the monitor!

This is the OP gossiping about discussing the issue of breastfeeding an infant with her weak-stomached DH.

It's depressing but there are probably quite a lot of people as narrow minded and ignorant as this.

ROAR at 'dh wouldn't discuss it over lunch'. You guys sound like a RIOT.

I really hope this is a joke.

maryz.... Don't forget sikkened and dysterbed

TSC why?

I'm being sarcastic to the OP's view of being too old to BF.

Jeez, some people.

Oh, and 'twat' yourself.

Work it out for yourself, OhNoYouDon't.

I'd cut your losses and delete the whole thread if I were you, MNHQ

Get a grip Feenie

What's your problem?
