God, SIX MONTHS?

Besides, how is it that a woman can put up with being pregnant for 9 months, but six months of breastfeeding is too much to ask?.

Only six months? And what, after that the baby is on solids all day long? Jenn, you have a job to do! I'm not going to be the one preaching the good news.

This is how brainwashed my sister's made me. Is it any wonder I'm not EVER having kids?

Haha, I've been replying to you in the community, without realizing that you said you were leaving.

Oh well, you will see it eventually.

It's interesting that you bring up the point of swallowing strangely - I swallow in a weird way that sounds sort of like what you say, yet I never once in my life used either a bottle or a dummy (pacifier.) I was breast fed and went straight from that to a cup when it was appropriate.

I didn't read the whole thread, but did anyone bring up the fact that Nestlé do the whole 'sending mothers in LEDCs formula for free' thing? Quite a lot of universities over here boycott Nestlé products (which is hard to do, believe me) in protest against this.

I think my uni boycotting Nestlé would be quite funny - we're down the road from their factory (the chief confectionary one.)
