Why do I get myself started?  

post #1 of 5
Thread Starter 
Why do I get started, and so worked up? Don't know how it came up, but I've been fighting all morning with the other young lawyers at my firm about how NIP is inappropriate. Come on, these are educated people! And, when I was NIP, you saw less of my boob then when they get dressed up to go out on Saturday nights...and why do I get myself so obsessed about it then that it's all I can think about?

I'm bringing Aaron in for a visit tomorrow...we're past the NIP stage (he only nurses morning and night) but I almost wish I could feed him here!

So sad...and these are the "fine upstanding citizens" too... Just goes to show you that "school learning" doesn't "make" a person.

Grrrrr... I don't blame you either! I'm soooo sick of defending my breastfeeding I could just SCREAM!!!

I mean good gravy! What the h*ll did people do back in the day prior to the arrival of formula!

I find it so ridiculous that in today's society, with all of the medical study backup that people still see something "wrong" with breastfeeding, and especially in public.

Can we all just move to our own little island or something and just support each other and nurse when and where ever we feel like it and just ONCE not be judged for it????

Wow... a little built up rage in me I suspect : Sorry!!

I Honestly dont see what the big deal is... NIP is not a bad thing at all! Its pathetic! I know this is kinda off topic, but another thing that irritates the cr*p out of me is a restaurant/shop that doesnt cater to b/feeding moms. I dont like eating my food in the toilet so why should my baby? Sometimes I just need a comfortable place to sit and nurse and there is nowhere....

I think tomorrow (or is it today, I didn't check the date) would be a perfect time to give Aaron a treat. Like, say, an extra nursing?
