Hi Tiktok

You seem to give really good advice on this forum but I was wondering what your credentials were. There's nothing on your profile page and I'd like to be sure.

FFS - This is a breastfeeding thread!

Not a John Sargeant thread!

well are BF and humour not compatible then?nae laughin when i got ma boobs oot dinnae scare the wean

I don't think I can add anything to anything anyone has said, TikTok is brilliant - almost too much because I realise how rubbish my PCT course was whenever I read anything she writes!

I just wanted to say that bad advice isn't about what works for some. Rugby hold works for some, not others, it's never bad advice. Strict feeding by the clock is bad advice, it may work for some people but for the majority it is bad. I'm sure there's loads of other examples too. There is a world of difference between "this could work for you" and bad advice.

What a rude OP.

Whilst I agree that there is no reason why a poster should not ask Tiktok about her background, surely it isn't difficult to be polite about it.

It would have been easy enough to do a search and find the relevant information but if that was too much trouble perhaps a 'please' or 'thank you' wouldn't have gone amiss in the OP.

I don't know what a wean is (am American)

And no, breastfeeding is not comapatible with humor - DD laughed at my breasts earlier! They weren't for her, but for DS, and may I add that she 'feeds' her dolly from her belly button

ScottishMummy · 20/12/2008 22:12

breastfeeding is not compatible with humour.why?is a serious pursuit enhanced by misery then

i do hope you are joking

it's only a feeding method,not a vocation

TinselBaublesMistletoe · 20/12/2008 22:18

Anyone who thinks breastfeeding and humour don't go together should tell Tink! I'm sure the only reason she still has "me-me" is because she finds it so funny!

ilovelovemydog · 20/12/2008 22:21

Oh goodness!

Of course I am joking!

ilovelovemydog · 20/12/2008 22:22

But I don't know what doing a wean is?

StealthPolarBear · 20/12/2008 22:23

I regularly feed a giraffe. He slurps and turns round to grin at DS

StealthPolarBear · 20/12/2008 22:24

"dinnae scare the wean"

"don't scare the child"

ScottishMummy · 20/12/2008 22:25

Cor!well i misread that.the humphy face threw me.wean=child btw

fledtoscotland · 20/12/2008 22:40

think the original OP could have been rephrased but just to say that you can add me to tiktok's fanclub as she replied to my threads when i was trying to BF DS2 in the early days. I wish all healthcare professionals gave such good practical advice
