New Zealand, Naturally!

Thanks its great to see something so positive.

I must admit that I have seen some of the discussion from the facebook site and wondered what it was all about. I was a little shocked by some if the members comments i.e. "whenever I I see someone bottle feeding mum I think you selfish person". I think you have to walk in someone else's shoes before you can be so judgemental. Although I support "breast is best" the number one thing IMO is that Mums and Bubs are happy.

On the positive though I love all the feedback that showed how so many mums had has struggles with breastfeeding, made me feel a little less alone.

I do agree about the site being a bit judgemental...
I believe a mother should do what is best for herself and baby. Some women can't breast feed while others have no problems breast feeding!
Although, when I hear a person is formula feeding I do wonder why, but I understand that obviously it was the best choice for them.
I was a formula fed baby and my mum tried very hard to breast feed me but realised we were both happier formula fed.
I am really pleased I can breast feed my baby and we are both enjoying it!

However it's a beautiful video and I breast fed my baby under the trees in late summer when she was a week old and it was just the most amazing feeling in the world, having a gentle breeze blowing, just relaxing in the shade...
I like the one of the two women on the chairs in the water and the one on the tractor!! And the lady from Southland at the beach...!!

The video made me realise how beautiful this country is all over again and didn't those women look fanstastic. I struggle to BF in public becuase bubba is very nosey and doesn't concentrate. I did manage to feed her at this years WOMAD festival and got joined but two others Mum's was so much fun chatting to them.
