DS just turned 1 last week. I just need some friendly support from other moms who have BF toddlers. I am definitely in the minority in RL!!

I'm a total novice at breastfeding, despite being passionate as all hell about it and women getting the right support to do it comfortably for as long as they want.

Fed DS1 till he self-weaned at nearly 17m and feeding DS2 who's 8.5m. Will feed him as long as he wants, but I'm going back to work next month two days a week (upping to three from January) so will have to get the pump out ).

What the Fuck tangent are you on MadCow?

No-one even mentioned (or even implied) this thread would lead to 'Would you let a mate feed your child'

Get back under you bridge where you belong you sad old MadCow

prince · 02/10/2006 23:59

Cowmad what do you think "your norks " were made for in the first place? I've never fed past 2yrs and wouldn't dream of letting someone else feed my baby when he was little. Seems like you are the one with the problem are there no interesting threads elsewhere? PS not that I disapprove of bf past 2yrs but each to their own.

just wanted to stop this before it all went south hunker

It's not going south, MC. Just fuck off, will you, there's a love.

Adorabelle · 03/10/2006 00:07

I'm really pissed off for someone to come on to an extended breast feeding thread & say YUK at
bfeeding past 2. Such an ignorant and small minded comment to make.

But also agree that Yes, draw a line under it & give this ridiculous person no more attention.

cowmad · 03/10/2006 00:12

mmm Im thinking EXTENTED is the not normal word here belle

lol

dobbed again for foul language hunker
classy chick!!!

hunkermunster · 03/10/2006 00:13

Oh, I'm very classy. I'll out-classy you any day

I did ask nicely if you'd fuck off though.

hunkermunster · 03/10/2006 00:14

Why are you criticising the word "extended" btw?

Monday is the day of our local bfeeding support
group. Dd & still go regularly, they have a big
playroom & dd is in seventh heaven in there

Was lovely being there today as a new girl came along. Shes only 16 & her ds is 6 wks now, think she had quite a few problems to start with but they're feeding beautifully now. I really admired her for sticking with it, all the young mums she know bottle feed & think she's a bit odd But shes stuck with it & I think that's great

Adorabelle · 03/10/2006 00:29

Welcome Kama

cowmad · 03/10/2006 00:30

why do you all need to use such horrible profanities?
did y`all not go to school??

hunkermunster · 03/10/2006 00:31

You bring out the best in me, MC.

Now, did you have a point? If not, don't let the door bang your behind on the way out.
