I taste everything I give Emma too! I'm just far too curious. DH has tried it too. I would offer it to anyone if they wanted to try it. Not straight from 'the tap' of course, but if someone was super curious I wouldn't mind pumping a little into a cup. It's just milk after all.
Oh I'd love to see someone's face if you did actually offer it straight from the tap!
On a different note, my mum has this habit of popping out her boob and giving it to one of the twins if they are waiting for a feed and crying. She thinks its quite funny and I have to say, it stops them howling straight away, they just use their nan as a dummy. My mum thinks this is perfectly ok as her mum did it to us aparently, but I have to say, I was freaked out by it at first! I don't say anything to her cos I dont want to upset her, but would any of you ladies be against this? She doesnt always do it, only if they are really screaming
it only seems weird in the western society...i must be the only one who thinks that this comment is fabulous!
I actually had no problem with that either. It seemed like a nice way to calm a baby to me.
totally agree!! and it's her mother comforting them,not like a complete stranger!
i think that to call it 'wrong on so many levels' is a bit of a blinkered opinion,
isn't it amazing how quickly society and it's 'norms' change? not so long ago wet nursing etc was the complete norm...
