Hi, I'm being far more "bah humbug" than I really should be for christmas! Sorry. Jayne, I appreciate your sentiments, and realise we are on the same side.
But could we please not use "Nazi" in relation to passionate supporters of breastfeeding? Most on this list put their heart and soul into birth and breastfeeding. The term "nazi" offends me to the core. I just can't bear it, and I just don't see the funny side about it. If breastfeeding supporters use it, even in jest, how can we expect others not to? (usually to deride the fantastic work done by breastfeeding counsellors and midwives) What new mother would want to speak to a "Nazi?" It turns people away from getting sound advice. Off my soapbox now! Barb
