Are YOU being unreasonable to be sick and tired of hearing that breast is best?

Sorry I don't mean the video which is very important and valid I mean the debate that will now kick off - AGAIN

Why the look Fabio?
Why, even IF Katie had thought that about the video, is she not allowed her own opinion?

BouncingTurtle · 12/08/2008 15:44

The debate has already kicked off elsewhere Katie.
But if this video is watched by someone who then has new insight in to breastfeeding, then that is a good thing.
And you are right, Kiskadee, the whole breast is breast mantra is overused and does nothing to educate people on breastfeeding.
Isn't Karleen Gribble a great name!!!

kiskidee · 12/08/2008 15:48

She looks nothing like I, in my narrow little mind, would expect a Karleen Gribble to look like.

lol

FabioFridgeFluffFrenzy · 12/08/2008 15:50

Yes she's allowed an opinion.
I thought it was a bit rude to just post 'yawn'.

Gateau · 12/08/2008 15:51

Oh right, fair enough Fabio.

SixSpotBurnet · 12/08/2008 15:53

Has this thing kicked off yet?

PuppyMonkey · 12/08/2008 15:54

That video crashed me computer... but is it the one where she says it's not best, it's normal?

Seen it. Been on here loads of times.

TheFifthApe · 12/08/2008 15:54

oh fgs

can you move this into Breastfeeding? I have that topic on Ignore for a reason you know

KatieDD · 12/08/2008 15:59

Can you tell me where the bun fight is ?
Sorry if I appeared rude, Karleen rocks but you just know what's coming

kiskidee · 12/08/2008 16:14

it is in AIBU, Katie. which is why the vid is also posted here.

so many, many people on the thread keep saying things like 'everyone knows that breast is best' and "the mw's kept ramming it down my throat that BIB, yadda, yadda... and I [sigh] every time I read it.
