Wow. Just wow. My first thought was, "Wow, I'm really lucky that DH wants me to nurse the baby as long as possible if I can and he's really supportive of all the benefits of breastfeeding," but then reality hit me: that lady's husband is a d-bag.
I would have tried to say something to that douchebag. *I say try because H is usually pretty good at knowing when I'm about to run my mouth and makes me shut up* That poor woman. How is she ever supposed to succeed at breastfeeding with a husband like that? Kudos to her for trying with such an unsupportive douche. I hope he's not always like that for her sake and the sake of their unborn child.
