Because this Christmas I got no end of jokey comments from rellies about how long I am intending to bf ds for.
"I bet ds will be like that man off Little Britain, you know, 'bitty'".
"When do you think you'll stop feeding him? When he goes to Uni?"
"What do you think his first word will be? 'Bitty'?"
And so on. All made in a happy jovial jokey way and one or two wouldn't have been so bad but by the end of the Christmas holidays I was getting really effed off with it.
These are the same rellies who when I was struggling with bf told me I was being stubborn and should ff instead. Of course now I've continued they're apparently immensely proud etc. etc. but I wonder... are they really? If so why all the jokey comments?
And ds is not even nine months old yet!!
So I wondered, how old were you when you got your first "bitty"-esque jokey comment?
