Agree with others here, WHY did the twins mum wean them all at once? No wonder they were unhappy poor mites. I mean nobody weans in one go do they? Bet her boobs were so sore.
But anyway, for me, her problem was not to do with extended breastfeeding as much as giving a 2.5yo 20 feeds a day and feeding them to sleep.
Mum with the older girls who draw pix of her and DH feeds too I mean wtf?? PMSL
(I fed till 13 mo with ds2 btw. By then he wasn't really bothered, which is why I stopped.)

Yes I suppose Hula.

I half expected more of a selfish POV of his wife still BF but he hasn't come across like that.

I'm not a violent person but I hope someone lamped that burberry clad idiot after filming

Everyone taking the micky cos I can't say a word is just plain mean.

Hulababy · 01/02/2006 21:47

I thought the DH who fed was the twin's dad???

RTKangaMummy · 01/02/2006 21:48

she is sooooooooooooooo strange this mad woman

Spidermama · 01/02/2006 21:48

I wonder why the twins had been feeding so often. Mine all tailed off which I would have thought would be more usual. This woman's experience sends out a worrying message to mums who want to carry on breastfeeding.

I have to say I fear for those sisters when they go to school tomorrow (if they go to school). If I were their mum I would never have gone public.

No nutter 8 year old feeding woman.

Lockets I liked that "better than a mango" comment as well. Imagine that being a 10yo's biggest-ever treat. Sweet really. Clearly a bit knit yr own muesli tho, that family (apols to any muesli knitters out there!)

The problem with this is that women will think their kids will definitely end up demanding breastmilk when they're twelve and ten. Not so. The vast majority will self-wean between 2 and 3 but these don't make for good telly.
