well if poshspice din't do it

Most subjects get emotive when somebody starts telling other people they are nauseating.

I can see why you are ashamed enough to hide what you are saying though. Not embarrassed enough to refrain from saying such painfully stupid things but at least concious enough to know that most people are wincing at how pathetic you're being.

Wrong again, not ashamed in the slightest, just know that I like having advice on other subjects, and people cant accept different opinions. Just accept that it freaks me out, theres no right or wrong, its how I feel. Im not being pathetic because I dont agree with you, you are saying that as possibly self preservation due to mild offense taken, which is silly.

I think anyone using formula milk to feed their baby is a just being lazy and not even trying to breast feed. Not to mention putting their children at risk of all sorts of horrible problems in later life. Mums who use formula are usually chavs with 10 kids all with different fathers and who think cola in a bottle is a nice change from SMA.

Wow, this offensive generalising about people is dead easy isn't it, hamstermummy?

LOL, generalise away, at least I dont get laughed at when giving my son a bottle! And FWIW, yeah I have kids with different dads (one died), Im a chav (wear trakkies for comfort), my kids are always ill (genuine health problems), and they have even had coke. Hell, I even bottlefed my youngest after having a mastectomy for breast cancer! Damn lazy, me.

hamstermummy is allowed to think it's gross, if she thinks it's gross. As she says, that is her opinion.
My opinion is that I think it is sad people can be so divorced from themselves as mammals to think that natural term breastfeeding is 'gross'.
Obviously, just my opinion.

can't accept different opinions? i've been accused of many things, that's a new one for me. wiry haired is right though damned genetics.

earth mama? hmmm, well i've just been on the macdonalds website checking the ingredients in a hash brown for ds4 (he can have it), he had a few chipswith his innocent smoothie at dinner.

not really sure what I am, a Peachy mother maybe?

No you're not lazy, just what you chose to do. For example, I I breastfed my youngest on my remaining breast after my mastectomy for breast cancer. Again, it was simply my choice.

sorry for typos, bf ds4 at the same time

Why is anonymity a license for unpleasantness?

Sorry indep, that was a response to Dippy. I didnt have a remaining breast, I had a double. Hope alls ok with your health now.

Because it's easy and you can walk away?

'at least I dont get laughed at when giving my son a bottle!'

but I'm laughing at you now

Last post obviously for lagaanisace, not hamster!
No problem at all now thanks hamster, sincerely hope things are good with you too.
Back to the issue, though: there is a huge cultural removal of ourselves from what we actually are, if we can be so disgusted at seeing a woman breastfeed a child older than a baby!

Please share what you are laughing at? Im dying to know what tickled you?

Where do people get the energy to have such strong feelings about extended breast feeding? I breastfed 'til 3 and am currently bfing a one year old, but I don't have the inclination to judge those who do otherwise. We all just do our best, don't we?

oh, still little britain and posh. I'm a simple soul. and is better than being cross.

sleepycat and lagaanisace, thanks for being refreshingly humourous about it!
Yes, I may seem a nasty type, but I wouldnt comment if I say it in public, so you would be none the wiser of my opinions. But you will find many others who will, and do.
In fact, while we are on the subject, I have a friend who's boyfriend wanted her to feed him too. Now please tell me thats virtually unheard of!

Oh what now? Are we now thinking of all the 'breastfeeding weirdos' stories we can think of? I'm off to another thread...

OK

I mean 'OK' to 'that's virtually unheard of...'.

Yeah, get over it, folks.
