Well, of course. Don't we all drive extra carefully round cars carrying breastfed babies, whilst happily crashing into the ones carrying despicable formula-fed babies?

Rufus, reckon I'd spot her a mile off....

Does it affect your insurance premium?

Anatidae · 23/07/2017 12:05

Yanbu.

no, you are not being at all unreasonable. That is seriously twattish.

Ceto · 23/07/2017 12:07

Being incredibly charitable, it's just possible that it's meant to be some sort of sign for medical professionals that, should there be a car crash where the mother isn't around for any reason they're going to have difficulty feeding the baby. However, I doubt that worrying about how the baby is going to be fed is exactly a priority for ambulance and fire crew cutting injured people out of cars; and I suspect that people in A&E are perfectly well aware that some babies are breastfed and will be able to work that one out all by themselves.

Notknownatthisaddress · 23/07/2017 12:07

I am all for breastfeeding (whenever it's possible to do it,) but that is pathetic. What a twat.

HeyRoly · 23/07/2017 12:08

Hahaha. What a twat. I can't abide people who base their very identity on the ability to feed a baby from their boob.

HeyRoly · 23/07/2017 12:10

Actually I'm sort of surprised she didn't have other stickers extolling the virtues of baby wearing, co-sleeping and "cloth bumming". The crunchy Holy Trinity Grin

Poor child

She probably has a blog.

Of course it isn't Grin It's smuggery and nothing more.

Thetruthfairy · 23/07/2017 12:13

She better keep that car clean - if not she's going to be rubbing off dirty boob drawings from her car every morning

Notknownatthisaddress · 23/07/2017 12:13

Yep it is smuggery. Why the F would 'medical professionals' need to know a woman breastfeeds her baby?! Confused

And why is she advertising it like she is something special for doing it? Confused

Whitelisbon · 23/07/2017 12:14

Good grief. Both mine were breastfed. They are older now. Maybe I should get a sign saying 'teenagers who were breastfed on board.'
That'd guarantee you never had to be mum's taxi again. Considering it myself Grin

AVY1 · 23/07/2017 12:14

Does it mean the mother breastfeeds in the car and is therefore asking drivers to be careful as the baby won't be strapped in?

That is the ONLY explanation I can come up with.

HAHA! nor me!

SeekingSugar · 23/07/2017 12:17

What a fun thread. I do like the bottle up the exhaust pipe suggestion

FunctionalAnatomy · 23/07/2017 12:17

NotKnown I'd love to live in a commune in a wheat field! To me, that pic looks so inviting! Love being barefoot, love nature, love long floaty skirts. I suppose I'd better leave MN... Sad Grin
I still wouldn't have this wanky sticker on my car organic tricyle though. Grin

Is there a "hands free" kit for cars so you can drive and bf at the same time?

LonnyVonnyWilsonFrickett · 23/07/2017 12:20

Dare you to find her, say you weren't breastfed as a child, and that you found her statement a triggering act of aggression...

LetZygonsbeZygones · 23/07/2017 12:22

Flipping heck that is very special. I could have done with a sticker reading in case of emergency please attempt to get some formula down the baby and hope you have more success than me. She appears to loathe all forms/sources of the stuff. Maybe try beer?

paxillin · 23/07/2017 12:22

Was the baby currently suckling? We need to know so we can all adjust our driving accordingly. I mean usually I would drive like a total menace, but not if there is a baby being fed.

NicolasFlamel · 23/07/2017 12:23

😂 what the fuck
