BREASTFEEDING QUIZ

I hope no one minds me posting this Breastfeeding Quiz which NCT is conducting for Bf Awareness Week. They'd like lots of particpants! It only takes a couple of minutes to do. TIA

SoupDragon · 22/04/2004 12:41

muddaofsuburbia · 22/04/2004 12:42

hercules · 22/04/2004 12:43

We are all being rather smug tday.

mummysurfer · 22/04/2004 12:43

ooo i still know something about it ...i got 15, only one wrong....the one about fair skinned mums being more likely to get sore nipples

suzywong · 22/04/2004 12:43

100%
that is a sense of achievement (for me)

mummysurfer · 22/04/2004 12:44

you clever lot, although it is 4+ years since i breastfed

hercules · 22/04/2004 12:45

Maybe bf increases mums iqs as well.

oliveoil · 22/04/2004 12:52

pah, got 3 wrong. The silicone one, the gastro one and the big babies need feeding earlier one. Do I get detention now?

kiwisbird · 22/04/2004 12:53

i got 16 right, but then I am an NCT member LOL
bit torn on the Guinness one though... sure it is responsible for ds piling on the beef as a little tit goblin...

skerriesmum · 22/04/2004 13:03

I got 15 out of 16, hooray...

motherinferior · 22/04/2004 13:11

Yes, but it's perfectly obvious what the 'right' answers are, in an NCT questionnaire which is all about The Virtues Of Breastfeeding! I got Q2 wrong on a technicality - it should say 'exclusively breastfed babies' not 'breastfed babies' as the answer I gave, IMO, applies to my daughter who is 10 months old and has a drastically reduced fluid intake compared to a few months ago.

bossykate · 22/04/2004 13:14

i have sent it on to some of my pg colleagues.

i got all the questions right!

suzywong · 22/04/2004 13:19

Aww does that mean I have my godl star taken away , MI

suzywong · 22/04/2004 13:19

gold, even

Blu · 22/04/2004 13:20

I got top marks too - but only by guessing the ones I didn't actually know (like silicon in f/m and) to best fit the NCT agenda!

WHY can't they prove that we should all drink more guinness? Very inconsiderate....

Zerub · 22/04/2004 13:25

Mmm, got them all right, but guessed some on the basis that it was an NCT questionaire about the wonders of bf'ing. Shame about the Guinness. Interesting about the silicon!

And the question at the end that says tick all that apply... Mother, Father ... Other. Did everyone remember to tick Other as well as Mother/Father? It surely applies to us all!

Rhubarb · 22/04/2004 13:52

13 out of 16!

Ooh, you've all been busy in your lunch-hour! As a fully paid up NCT member I got 100%, as well. I've sent it to dh and ds's as well, to see what they manage!

I got 14 out of 16 because I misread the questions The ones about water and what others think of B/F. I realised as soon as I saw the answers I had read them the wrong way round. I am so ashamwd not to get topmarks

I got the silicone one wrong, didn't realise there was any silicone in formula. You learn something new every day.

musica · 22/04/2004 16:27

I got all but one right - fell down on the Guiness one!

Interesting that most people don't mind people feeding in public....
