LMAO @ Baileys!!!!

Hate these threads coming up

but it's never going to end lol!!

I only skimmed through but I wanted to say the 'why do you?' question imo is a question that should never be asked when talking about how another feeds their baby (noone has the right to ask imo) - You take that ONE question out how quieter these topics would be. People do get offeneded, pushy ...happens between us all therefore should just be left unasked. So on that note I'd rather that question was left from this thread as well as the whole 'debate'. Feed baby? Baby happy? Thats ok then right?

Back to posters original topic ....

I don't think it's the fact that you're a teenager that your friends look at you funny when you say you're going to breastfeed,it's the fact that your friends are teenagers.

Well said Amy!!

Im breastfeeding but slowly begining to stop now, my baby is 5weeks old. Alot of my friends and even my midwife was surprised i wanted to breastfeed, She said around here not many young girls choose to breastfeed.

Breastfeeding is best! I did it for 4 months after i had my little girl.

I'm going to bottle feed. I don't know why lol, it might be because my older sister did when she had her baby and i seen her do it.

I dont get why being younger means people think your not gonna breast feed. I was even asked by someone like she thought it was weird that I would breast feed.

I do breastfeed now and I plan to continue to BF Jasper for at least 12 months - then we'll negotiate... he's such a boob man (at 4 months

) that I think it'll take some negotiation to 'talk' him out of it! I've had a few people give me negative reactions to that also... but nobody can influence something that is exclusively between me and my LO, if I choose to BF till he's 2 (which I wont, but still) then so be it!

I think, also if nothing else, its free! Its there all the time... no worrying about taking out bottles with you, no having to sterlize equiptment, you can feed in the middle of the night without having to turn the light on... and if your shy, there is no reason you cant BF at home and FF when your out and about - I do from time to time if I'm going to a resturant or something like that.

Not anything against FFing though, I think we all do what we think is absolutely whats best for our LOs, and you cant fault that!
