choggiesays...Hey, Heather Cushman-Dowdee??? I really hate this,can't say, well, won't say why, cause it would be futile to do so for ya, yer too far gone-
Zoop me up some bacon and eggs.....
persephonesays...What a great little metaphor(woops). Don't know why there's negative reaction here. You Choggie, talk about how the American diet has gone to shit. Where do you think that all starts? With the wonderful food that women's bodies produce on demand? No! It starts with the formula pushed onto them by every well-meaning relative/nurse/doctor, who thinks it will save the mother some trouble.
If I'd listened to my well-meaning folks, I would have quit breastfeeding at 5 months, because they all claimed my fussy baby was starving. Thankfully, I persisted and a good thing too, because at 18 months when she got chickenpox and wouldn't eat or drink anything but breastmilk, I knew I was giving her the best nutrition to get her through the illness.
Choggie, I'm sorry I deleted the foul message you sent to me in a private profile reply when I first started sifting, in response to comments I left on a previous video about breastfeeding. The virulent attack was completely uncalled for and if I could, I would drag it out of the ether and show everyone here how nasty you can be toward women who want to show support for breastfeeding.
Power to women who want to use their boobs for what they were made for, I say!
choggiesays...whoa....My mom was sold the same bill a goods, (Dr. Spock was the big hoo-ha in the mid-sixties) and her doc told her the same thing-I lost out on titty, and am probably lees a man due to it-
I do not, however, think this little ditty, emotionally-conceptualized, rendered and presented in the format that it is, is either entertaining, or very informative, unless you have never had the opportunity to be blessed with 3rd grade edumacation......I find it pathetic, that mothers listen to doctors regarding themselves during pregnancy anyhow, but that's a whole nuther story....
we are on the same page persephone, I would rather take it up with Heather, and find out who her target audience was....I might then change my tune-
she comes off, as a flake to me, and the world is too far gone, for my own time left, to suffer one more of them....I have enough flake in me for an army of delusionals.....
9847says...I didn't think it was an attack on mothers that use formula, more the companies that make them believe they have a need to. Sorry if it came across that way to you
Arsenault185says...I really tried to watch all of it. Really I did. But I couldn't handle it. I didn't pick up any message from it. Not once did the metaphor for breastfeeding occur to me. I just thought it was a realy irritating "cutesy" story or something. And this stuff is on my mind lately, as my wife is in her third trimester.
siftbotsays...Discarding this video. It failed to receive enough votes to get sifted up to the front page within 2 days.
