Now this REALLY f**ks me off!

Jess, so you should feel that way. She has no idea what happened to you and why you can't BF. How dear she saw anything like that to someone she doesn't know. Is there anyway of tracking her down and giving her a ear full throught the net??

wow, the nerve of some people!!!!! No wonder you are fuming I would be too!!! And this person doesn't know you??? Hope you can track her down, I'm with mummy_becks this interferring busybody needs to be put in her place!!!

i agree, thats a shocker! i can understand how you must be feeling jess. big GRR'S to the "jill" person. man that would make me soooooooooo mad.

I must say that makes me pretty mad as well, you think people with "the brains" to think up witty comments that are full of knowledge actually know what they are talking about.
I'm with you Jess, we can't help that we couldn't physically breastfeed and no amount of "you should have, you could have" can change that.
Bigoted intolerance just rips my nightie!

Just have a little bit of chocolate, you don't want to let her get to you or let your team down.

Good thing you could delete it, hopefully she doesn't come back again.

Weird. How absolutely rude!!!

What a nasty lady you don't say that to anyone especially people you don't actually know. Try not to let it get you down everyone else knows how awesome a mum you are.

Kharma will come back to bite those BFing nutts (the ones that absolutely shove it down your throat!) in the ass!!!!
I couldnt BF my son and no one could tell me why but i persevered for 4 months!!!! to no avail and even after all that trying i still felt like an unbelievable failure!!! i even felt like maybe i shouldve rushed into having another bubs just so i could prove to myself and all those other BF nutts that i could do it!!!
Im not sure what those BF nutts expect those of us that have no choice to formula feed, to do!!!??? struggle along till our children get so melnurished that we have to formula feed!!!!. Dont get me wrong though - i totally have no problem with formula feeding even before i had to do it myself! i just have something against those ladies that are so narrow minded!!

That lady "jill" obviously was never told by her mummy that "If you dont have anything nice to say and its uncalled for then dont say anything at all"!!!!

That is so unbelieveably rude and sucky. I hate people that do that. I sincerely hope that anyone on here never mistakes any advice i give for Bf as being pushy. lol.   I went through the same thing with Paris and perservered despite all the signs being there that it just wasn't working.. and i was a right mess mentally because of that and a few other things. I did have a good expereince with Ayja though so I do finally know how nice it can be.. but having cuddles giving them the bottle is just as good if not nicer sometimes cos you have all your hands free to give them cuddlysnuggles. I have just found that through working and learning and knowing more and having to help women everyday.. I have a little more knowledge and so am willing to share it.. but yeah...am always willing to give mums the reality as well.. It's fricken hard to learn and sometime syour body just doesn't do what it should.. and theres nothing wrong with formula, most of us were probably brought up on fromula because there was a fad for a while where BF was just "SOOOO uncool" and hey, we all turned out just fine

anyway Jes, I hope you can find out who that nasty piece of work is. What a horrible lady.

mum2 Paris, I don't think that anyone would ever take advice the wrong way! I am just disgusted when people are told they are letting their kids down. I mean, we all try so hard to do whatever we can for these babies, then when you can't do something that you really feel you should be able to do people abuse you - grrrr!

Advice from those who have gone before is awesome! I am worried a bit about breastfeeding becasue both of my sister's kids had to go on to formula within 6 weeks due to poor quality milk and bad sucking - I just don't want to get feedback like poor Jezsika has had to suffer!

(The sort of unsolicted comment Jezsika got on her blog makes me think of that terrible sureslim add where they have the baby in the womb and list all the things the mother is doing by being overweight - I would never go to sureslim after that add)
