    I saw that too and thought it was hilarious. I breastfed until 1 year, but I wasn't religious about it. There were no Johnson & Johnson feelings, and I was happy to give it up when DS turned 1. I'm a pediatrician, and I'm from a family who breastfeeds, so that's just what you DO. Did I lecture others about it or talk about it incessently? No. Did I give a piece of my mind to a friend who is in La Leche League and treats it like a religion? Yes. And I enjoyed it too. Sorry (not sorry).

    I saw this yesterday and thought it was great.  I'm a big BF person, but like @mattandlora, it's my thing and I try not to push it on others.  I've struggled to find the balance of how to be supportive of my friends who are bf and might want or need help/advice b/c I don't want them to feel like I'm being judgy or pushing bf.  Like anything parenting related, you have to do your homework and decide what will work best for you and your family!

    Oh so funny, and oh so true for many women.

    Kelly, Mom to Christopher Shannon 9.27.06, Catherine Quinn 2.24.09, Trey Barton lost on 12.28.09, Therese Barton lost on 6.10.10, Joseph Sullivan 7.23.11, and our latest, Victoria Maren 11.15.12

    Secondary infertility success with IVF, then two losses, one at 14 weeks and one at 10 weeks, then success with IUI and then just pure, crazy luck.  Expecting our fifth in May as the result of a FET.

    I'm really serious about breastfeeding but I don't make it everyone else's business.
