Is the GMTV breastfeeding piece going to be shown on Wednesday?

[verylittlecarrot]

I had heard a rumour it was, but it isn't in their "what's on" listings.

However, I did find this on their website today, which seems to be a little more balanced in terms of debate. Perhaps it is hoping to do the piece without warning us [cloak and dagger emoticon]

Dr Hillary's comments will make you want to flick his silly head though.

You have been warned.

It's like they wanted reassuring that she too had a cut off age after which bf is weird and disgusting.
Like "well of course I won't still be feeding her when she's six! urgh"

Im hoping there were GPs across the country going ''shutup, shutup'' to Dr Hillary. Id certainly be ashamed if I had the same career as him!

tosser is too good for him
I was thinking, more like......

oh feck I MISSED it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

harpsi wash your mouth out

...I know my doc advocates breatfeeding and extended.

did they mention the poll?

purplemonkey, no, good point I hadn't realised that, not at all

have just sent another comment in to ask why
Now I must go!

Has anyone seen the posts on the GMTV forum after babieseverywhere's post? What a bunch of twats!

wheres the forum?

LOL, I know I expected it, but challenging stupid people's opinions is good for their development.

I keep trying to post on the forum, but it won't let me! I want to stick my oar in!

You have to be moderated onto the forum, I did this last week in preparation for the article. I think it took a couple of hours to be 'approved' to be a member.

Oh bugger!

sorry i was wondering when comments on that page would show up

Urgh, you can't log in to post straight away! You have to wait for them to let you. Argh, what a bunch of ill informed idiots!

Yeah, mothers are apparently selfish for "forcing" feeding their babies past a year. Words fail me, they really do.

babieseverywhere, you must reply to this:

"apart from the fact that she was saying her 4 and a half yr old was benefitting from still being fed. dont agree with that. the child will have gotten all the nutrition it can from milk a long time ago."

so she doesn't give her child milk then, or cheese or, say food??

bumper there are a lot of very stupid people in the world.
present company excepted

i sent this to GMTV:

Is Dr Hilary is really a doctor?? His comments about extended breastfeeding are ignorant and INCORRECT.
If he's so wrong about extended breastfeeding (and he is so wrong) then what else is he wrong about? There are people out there who trust this man. Perhaps GMTV should look into sending 'Dr' Hilary on a few courses just to brush up on, well, medicine.

it took all the will power i have to not swear.

How do you force a child to breastfeed?

No wonder the bfing rate in this country is so low with such ill-informed idiots inflicting their opinions on people!

Hmm, let's see if we can start one of those "internet campaigns" that us mothers' websites are so notorious for.

What a "Ban Hilary Jones from TV and medicine in general because he is a twunt" campaign!

Harspi,

For you
