To want to set the record straight about the Cedar Falls Nurse In

I am organising the peaceful protest OUTSIDE THE GATES of Cedar Falls. The protest is not taking place because Victoria tried to take an under 16 to an age-restricted place expecting special treatment it is because the spa have cancelled her booking rather than allowing her to make alternative arrangements. Whatever has happened in the past is immaterial and I am horrified by the muck-raking and bullying instigated here last night. I, personally, do not condone the online attack on their Facebook page but that is of course up to the individual., I have also requested members of the event to remove any they may have already posted but I have no power to do so. For those who are uninformed breastfeeding at 1 is not only recommended but it aids nutrition, soothing and attachment- for Victoria's child they may or may not have required a feed during this weekend but provision needed to be in place to facilitate this and it would be unfair for the child not to ensure this is possible, this does not mean that a nursing mother must be sequestered away from living a normal adult life for the duration. The rights regarding discrimination is to protect the right of the breastfeeding mother to do so. I won't be returning here to fight the fight but as MNHQ deleted the last thread I have had to start my own to give you my own twopence'th if anybody wants to contact us for more information the email address is [email protected]

Oh, the fanjo pads were bad enough, but knitted tampons?

littledrummergirl · 14/07/2014 18:30

I wouldnt worry too much. Its a bit out of this world, nothing much to see there.

SquigglySquid · 14/07/2014 18:31

There. Galaxy pads, sans company name. Is this acceptable?

A sparkly fanjo pad maker
Was such an outrageous piss taker
A free trip to the spa
Wasn't good enough by far
So she called on her fellow muck rakers

C'mon ladies, who can offer verse 2?

Cocolepew · 14/07/2014 18:32

Im learning to knit, they can be my next project.
I'll have a fb page and everything

Pumpkinpositive · 14/07/2014 18:32

The pics have already been posted up thread, Squiggly.

Cocolepew · 14/07/2014 18:34

She wore a raspberry pad
The kind you find on a facebook page
Raspberry pad
And and at your spa you dont need to wear much more.

What is amazing is that she is able to get licensing from Pixar and others for the use of their imagery on nappies - like the Minions. So many other companies cannot agree those types of contracts. Hmm

PolkaSpottyDotty · 14/07/2014 18:35

I first started reading and nodding, agreeing with all the PPs who are saying this is nothing to do with breastfeeding and doesn't help breastfeeding mothers.

I'm finishing thinking wtf are you all on about and please may I have a PM too?!

londonrach · 14/07/2014 18:36

Stop it I need a sparkly something due to laughing....

VanessaShanesa · 14/07/2014 18:36

A lady dead keen on breastfeeding
Said "Tie dye is best when you're bleeding!
I'll drum up some custom
That spa place? I'll bust 'em!"
I think its a grip she is needing.

BlueThursday · 14/07/2014 18:37

I really should be doing dishes but can't put this down!

NunsArePeopleTooDougal · 14/07/2014 18:38

Polka, I've sent you a PM.

SiennaBlake · 14/07/2014 18:39

They set off to do a staged nurse in
And filled up their boobies to burstin'
But Cedar Falls didn't care
And no press was there
So they left with their pride a hurtin'

Cocolepew · 14/07/2014 18:40

You can't shit on a Minion! Shock
Thats just wrong

FryOneFatManic · 14/07/2014 18:40

Wow, this woman's stuff is .... um.... rather colourful, isn't it. Not the sort of thing I would see as replacing my mooncup.

And DD is gobsmacked, to put it politely. Just said having that in her pants would make it all look like she'd exploded and Ewwww.. Grin

PolkaSpottyDotty · 14/07/2014 18:47

Thanks Nuns.

It's an, erm, interesting concept...

PinkSquash · 14/07/2014 18:48

See, I quite like the idea of Muff Fluff, but I like to keep a check on what's what down there and the psychedelic tye dye would just confuse me.

DS2 used to shit on stars and planets. He's that special.

vindscreenviper · 14/07/2014 18:48

"You can't shit on a minion"

Grin

I proper lolled at that!

D0oinMeCleanin · 14/07/2014 18:50

Dare I ask what happens about washing them? I realise this is tmi, but if I leak a bit, my knickers need binning. How do these come clean or do they, um, not come clean?

Rainbunny · 14/07/2014 18:52

Oh FFS. Will there be protests outside of nightclubs next for not allowing mothers to BF in them next? This woman is a nuisance not a campaigner.

Vindictive, waste of everybody's time, damaging, stupid, It is a commercial organization - they can choose to set age limits.

Why do you want to damage someone's livelihood?

unlucky83 · 14/07/2014 18:53

OMG knitted tampons aren't a wind up ...I can't believe they exist - Wool is scratchy and itchy - noooooooo - think I'll stick to my mooncup
Are knitted tampons really for real ????
(Still think I've got that wrong and they aren't - they do knitted pads too...wool is itchy - it is ...really that can't be comfy - an old cotton rag would be better surely? )
Anyway these came up in my search ...interlabial pads
I can't imagine these are comfy either Hmm ... purple thing is the pad -but at least they don't appear to be knitted - and couldn't see any tie dyed one either - a gap in the market?

Feeling like I've lived such a sheltered life....

Viviennemary · 14/07/2014 18:54

I absolutely would not support this. The person was getting a free weekend and yet still wants to cause trouble. The company did nothing wrong. This is totally unfair and does absolutely nothing to support b/f.
