Am so bloody ANGRY at the comments -------->>>>> here

[RedSparklersOnHerHead]

I am so angry at the comments posted on this story

here
about a thread I was on here

Ok, so they are allowed comments, but they have really offended me with the comments about the silly names that I have given my children. I took it as a personal attack. All I am trying to do is stop this from happening again to someone else. I really want to make a comment back at them all but I don't want them to think they have got to me

Please help, make a positive comment for me on there too pretty please???

I know you MN'ers wont let me down.

TIA

anyway, I don't think IABU given the circumstances???

I dont understand why they think your children's names are silly .

I can understand how you feel about the comments but try not to let it get to you. You become sort of public property as soon as you are in the papers. I have a very famous neice who talks about my daughter (who died) quite often. There have been some nasty, ill informed comments on various sites about this. It hurt dreadfully at first but now I cant be arsed to worry about it. These people are morons.

I don't understand their logic either, or how they think it relevant to the treatment you received at the hands of the hospital.
Idiots!

For the record, I would have done the exact same thing. I have never been able to successfully express so that just wouldn't be an option for me either way. Good for you for standing up to them, and as PP says, try not to let the silly comments get to you.

They are perfectly normal names

They are truly idiotic people who are commenting.

oh ignore them - one daft post - not worth wasting breath on, quite frankly!

Grrr..what an idiot! And stupid stupid hospital rule.
And what a beautiful child and beautiful mummy

that is disgusting!!
i hadnt seen your story until now
i totally agree with you that it is a stupid 'policy' and is not in any way in line with the WHO etc advice that BF child exclusively should be for at least 6 months!! NHS is so hit and miss!!
also ignore the idiots being rude about your DS's names as IMO they are beautiful good strong names and they are your choice!! some people need more things to occupy their minds other than nosing into someones business!!
well done for standing your ground over this very important issue!!
xx ei xx

I reported the post. I'm a tell tale, but it really pissed me off!!!

Good God I am so bloody on your behalf, brainless t*ats! I haven't left a comment as I would need to join etc. It's quite late but I will most definately do so tomorrow.

It's bad enough that you had to go through what you alrady did without gobshites like posting such utter drivel. Your baby is beautiful btw and your dc have lovely names.

Rise above them pet. x

oh just ignore them. (I know, easier said than done) Your children have perfectly normal names (at least one is a saint's name, as far as I know). And even if they weren't normal names, it's a bit silly for anyone to complain. But the reality is that there is a certain percentage of people out there who have nothing better to do than say insulting things to others because they have nothing good to say about themselves. And even more unfortunately, the internet gives these people and easy and anonymous forum for being mean and foolish. All you can really do is ignore it because even if you were to meet that person in the flesh, there is nothing you could do or say that would change their behavior or make them feel remorse. Because anyone who could be that nasty doesn't have remorse or ethics or a soul in the first place.

I am proud of you for taking a stance and actually making a public stink. I only wish I had had the wherewithall to do so after my abysmal treatment in hospital after giving birth to my ds.

He's not really called Orsen.

Orsen Cart? Say it out loud.

Sorry you felt so hurt, Sparklers. He's a dickhead and doesn't deserve his comment to be dignified by your response.

What w*nkers.... why bother commenting on your story at all if they weren't going to even read it properly and then slag off the names of your kids. AAAAGH.

What was all that stuff about: 'Then to realise it's the easiest thing in the world to ?make? lots of children but it's very difficult to bring up lots of them happy and without want!' What's that got to do with your story?

MORONS!

Oh, and I reported the post!

You have answered that eejit perfectly and try not to get het up - your dcs name are lovely!

I think those are lovely names, and I'm going to store Breyen away for possible names for dc2!

I love Welsh names - I loved Bran for ds but I fear English schoolkids would just say, "Bran? What, like Bran Flakes??"

Well done for going to the papers. I hope they change their policy.

Nothing silly about your boys' names, they are very nice names.

silly names? silly names?

WTF??
those names are completely normal and really really nice to boot!

you should be really proud of what you are doing. Is that hospital trying for Baby Friendly status BTW?

i can't find the nasty posts about names! i like the names btw, and well done for reporting it

grrr its cos you lot reported them before i got to read them

Your children have lovely names and you are a super mum for standing up for the right of your baby to be breastfed. Good for you and also very brave and helpful for others who might not be able to report what happened if it happened to them.

I find the hospitals reply so stupid beyond belief - just shows that you are in the right completely and they were wrong.

Hope you are better soon xxx

Thankfully those posts are now gone so I didn't get to read them but I'm sorry you had to go through what you did with the hospital. Have you contacted the BFi?

So, I read the story, teh comments underneath and the thread you linked too...and I can't find anything about silly names...I must be blind!

But what a shockingly stupid policy...however...yeah, Royal Gwent is not the greatest Hospital, imo, and nothing surprises me, tbh....there was a reason why, when living in that area, I had ds2 in Gloucester instead of Newport!

I didn't see the nasty post(s) either but I would just say to not respond to them.

Ignore them as though they are not important enough for you to spend time on.

By replying, they will know they have wound you up.

Hope you get all your treatment sorted out soon.

Ignore them they are idiots.

At first I thought your lo's name was Loop Biopsy and I thought Oh thats unusual.

Haven't read all the comments, but good on you for going to the papers over this. I think the original article was very well written and gets the point across well.
