Breastfeeding Support - 6 months and beyond!

Wouldn't think so... you seem so very different from them :hugs: I really don't get how they are not proud of you and your babies!
 
I dont do as they do or wan me to. they where married before kids, house after marriage christened kids, etc I done none of that. my mum thinks i should listen to them on everything as she is controlling. we rowed about what school william would go to before he was born!
 
lol i didnt do things the way my parents envisioned either hun, i ran off to the other side of the world married a guy i met online that they didnt know and had only spoken to over the phone a handful of times and ive lived out here for 5 1/2 years knowing all the time they want me home lol
 
Dad send me a message apologising to me . Thats the first time in my life I have ever gotten an apology but as i said its not normally my dad i row with but it was both them this time. I explained that I was upset as when they offend me they laugh at me and make me feel stupid for being offended because they are so rude to Me. I just want them to see they offended me and to take me seriously and not laugh at me.
 
I posted this up please read,.

17 month breastfeeding milestone today!! :dance::dance: I gotta change my blinkie but have to go make breakfast for Emma first. :haha:
 
DF- Glad you got an apology, just wish it wasn't needed kwim? :hugs:

Cleckner- Congratulations on 17 months! WootWoot! :thumbup:
 
Just read the link DF, holy! I seriously don't think I would have continued on... wow!
 
When I seen some saying that determination wasnt the key I thought of that article I read earlier on the week. Seen it posted on facebook. I thought it was inspirational that she got through with all of that but i hope poeple dont come in and get pissed off becayuse they had probs and start justifying. Its a moral booster not a rub your face in it story.


Ok so my photos, about 10 or more of them will be displayed at an art exhibition here at the castle! :O people can buy themn and they will be printed by them at no cost to me bit i get the money if they sell. There will be pothers there selling jewellery and pottery. papers, tv and such! I cant pick pictures so let them. There will be info and all about me there and me of course. feel chuffed and excited!
 
DF- That sounds so awesome! Your pictures are amazing and you are very talented that way :) So excited! Let us know how you make out with it! :thumbup:
 
I am looking a nice outfit and all for it, i want a dress only thing is my boobs are big and if i get one for big size its to long and wide. big boob girls need dresses to :( wanted to look nice for once as i am always looking wreaked. Make a nice impression.


found this statement thought it made sence,

"Women should not feel guilty if they are unable to breastfeed, but they should feel guilty if they are unwilling to do so, and they should be intellectually honest enough to know the difference." -- Elizabeth Gene
 
I really like that quote. Makes sense!
 
DF- you going to post that in the thread in bfing Why aren't more women breastfeeding?
 
Thanks ladies for all the responses.
I really hate pumping, and don't get much at all, which is why he is already supplemented with formula. I really don't mind stopping as long as I can maintain a supply on only two feeds a day, and he can have cows milk during the day.
 
DF- you going to post that in the thread in bfing Why aren't more women breastfeeding?

yeah i posted it. Its a bit horrible when I see so many that did have reasons to not breastfeed medically explain time and time again why they cant in these threads. I dont see people who refuse to in them threads. I dont know if it wil offend its meant to make them feel better as its not them that should feel guilty.
 
I know what you mean, that is why I put the article on there, wasn't meant for offense it was more to show that they are surely not alone in the lack of help and support and something is slowly being done about it, do not feel bad.

I really do love that quote!

Why you even more excited now?
 
The exhibition is going ahead! :)

why is there so much confusion about woman who cant breastfeed and who wont?
