I was telling a friend of mine about the keychain I just ordered off eBay with this phrase on it, and his response was, "What else would you use human milk for?" :LOL<br><br>
I thought that was a great resonse! I explained that since formula feeding is common, the statement is really saying that cow's milk is not for human babies. But I loved his assumption that <i>obviously</i> human milk is for human babies and it never crossed his mind that any other kind of milk was for babies. (His mama breastfed his little brother who was born when he was 13, so he's familar with bfing.)

that's so great!<br><br>
i've noticed, though, that a lot of the guys i talk to just 'assume' that women breastfeed their babies. i haven't really encountered a lot of men that know much (or anything) about formula. maybe i'm just lucky.<br><br>
now if only we could transfer that mentality to the entire world.....<br><br><img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.mothering.com/discussions/images/smilies/oops.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="oops">T i clicked on the links in your siggy and on the 'mama' link saw the pic of you holding your babe, and i *love* that diaper. what is it? where did you get it? i must know!! <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.mothering.com/discussions/images/smilies/orngbiggrin.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="orange big grin">

I got the keychain also and DH said kind of the same thing, "Duh, what else would it be for?" :LOL

I want that keychain! I already freak people out with my "Only sexy b*tches have red keychains." (uncensored, of course.) <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.mothering.com/discussions/images/smilies/mischievous.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="mischief"> Holidays with my Dad's very Catholic family are fun. BTW, looked at your pics, & your baby is an absolute cutie pie! (So's your hubby!) <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.mothering.com/discussions/images/smilies/thumb.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="thumbs up">
