First Time Mum and Breastfeeding Obsessive

[ConfessionsOfABFMum @ConfessionBFMum]

@BBCTheOneShow "Many women don't make enough milk" Less than 1% of women, given correct support, are unable to make enough milk

[ConfessionsOfABFMum @ConfessionBFMum]

@BBCTheOneShow "Won't do baby any harm to have formula"? Expect 50% increase risk of SIDS. Plus higher chance of diabetes, cancer, allergies

[ConfessionsOfABFMum @ConfessionBFMum]

@BBCTheOneShow V. Disappointed at portrayal of breastfeeding. U.K. Already has lowest breastfeeding rates and media doesn't help

[ConfessionsOfABFMum @ConfessionBFMum]

So for #WorldBreastfeedingWeek , with all the useful, interesting supportive things they could post, @HuffingtonPost write about how to stop

[Jane Godman @JaneGodman]

My rant about @karren_brady and her vile comments about breastfeeding are now over. Wonder how much the formula companies pay @TheSun?

[Jane Godman @JaneGodman]

I think it would be nice if a high profile woman was in favour of breastfeeding instead of labelling it weird @karren_brady @jamieoliver

[Jane Godman @JaneGodman]

.@ConfessionBFMum @karren_brady @TheSun possibly because we are the only country in which breastfeeding shaming is seen as acceptable @WHO

[Jane Godman @JaneGodman]

Isn't it time @TheSun @karren_brady stopped it's campaign against breastfeeding?@WHO @_breastfeeding @BreastfeedingM https://t.co/LHmtJ48pv3

[ConfessionsOfABFMum @ConfessionBFMum]

@karren_brady The UK has the worst breastfeeding rates in the world and the ignorance that you display in or article is part of the reason.

[ConfessionsOfABFMum @ConfessionBFMum]

@karren_brady and that breastfeeding could save the NHS millions!

[ConfessionsOfABFMum @ConfessionBFMum]

@karren_brady did you know @WHO recommend breastfeeding until AT LEAST 2 years of age?

[ConfessionsOfABFMum @ConfessionBFMum]

@karren_brady must be weird to be allowing children to self wean?! Despite the fact that that is what every other species does.

[ConfessionsOfABFMum @ConfessionBFMum]

@karren_brady Your article in @TheSun today subtly undermines #breastfeeding and show how skewed our opinions are of breastfeeding in the UK

[ConfessionsOfABFMum @ConfessionBFMum]

@littlemissevec women like you make it easier. Women like @andrea_mclean make it harder.

[ConfessionsOfABFMum @ConfessionBFMum]

@littlemissevec fab! My son is only 7 months, but I hope to keep going until he is ready to stop.

[ConfessionsOfABFMum @ConfessionBFMum]

@andrea_mclean why is breastfeeding an older child disgusting? Natural term bfers made to feel like freaks in society. You added to that

[ConfessionsOfABFMum @ConfessionBFMum]

@FitbitSupport any way to add breastfeeding to my activities? Accounts for a lot of calories!

[ConfessionsOfABFMum @ConfessionBFMum]

@fitbit any chance of adding breastfeeding as an activity to help track calories?

[ConfessionsOfABFMum @ConfessionBFMum]

@AldiUK quilts and cot bumpers in baby event. Both are SIDS risk. Would you consider stopping selling them? #safesleep

[ConfessionsOfABFMum @ConfessionBFMum]

@thirtytworock @CharnwoodBRAS @Femail definitely! Love the pics. BF is part of everyday life so why not document it!
