    Hmmm playing devil's advocate a bit here but do you think a lot of what she wanted to say was lost in translation? Ie it should be the law because that would have made it easier for her to continue.

    Oh no. Is that supposed to mean Sexy Mummies?! Does anyone else who reads things like "I weaned at 5 weeks" just instantly disbelieve them or am I too sceptical?

    I was a bit sceptical too, lot's of people were saying 6 months is current guidelines too but other people were quite adamant they were ok to start much, much earlier. And yep, it's meant to be Sexy Mummies. I should really delete her off fb, she's the sort of person who always has a drama going on and the status updates are like car crash tv. You don't want to look but you just can't help yourself :o

    Gill thats great that your parents will have T overnight :)

    Maz it sounds like Henry is really doing well (bar wanting to flush his pants away!) with the toilet training.

    I noticed on the preg thread earlier there's another Isla just been born :D

    Has anyone seen this about Gisele apologising? Her last comment in this article made me almost as mad as the first comments she made! So everyone is supposed to HAVE to bf for 6 months, but she gave up because "I can't be sitting in Starbucks and breastfeeding because they [photographers] are taking pictures." Eh? So everyone should bf but stay at home all day long to do it so nobody sees. Silly cow. Not to mention the fact that you are a model, so obviously don;t mind having your picture taken, and as you seem to think bf is so important surely it'd be good to have your pic taken while bf, no?
    I like this quote from a gynaecologist:
    There are maternal and fetal challenges to breastfeeding.
    It certainly would be challenging to breastfeed a "fetus" since it would still be inside.
    Any question, comment or opinion is not intended to be criticism of anyone else.

    I'm not sure. I didn't get the impression the two things were linked in that way. Never get the full story through the media though do you? :Rolleyes:

    I didn't see that maz, it was early hours of this morning I was lurking on my phone as I couldn't sleep. I'd seen a post from pigpen saying she didn't think she'd make it to weekend.

    Congrats Pigpen :j
