Well since it could be used for breastfeeding, it certainly would have come
in handy when I had to work at the computer (I work at home) and feed a baby at the same time when both things *had* to be done at the same time. -- Sue (mom to three girls) I'm Just a Raggedy Ann in a Barbie Doll World...

I thought it looked good for the Dad, but then my dh was a SAHD for
our first dd. I also thought when it had toys to play with that could be good like when waiting at the doctors office. It did seem bit odd to see women doing it when you know their breasts are right there. KC (Elana Kehoe) wrote in message ...

Oh okay, I thought it was able to hold the baby up in place. Then, it would have been useless. ) -- Sue (mom to three girls) I'm Just a Raggedy Ann in a Barbie Doll World... |

HollyLewis was all, like:
There's something about the pic of the mom bottlefeeding a baby this way...it's just....weird. Her boob's right there... You all know what I mean. It just seems...strange. Hee hee. I've always found it *really* strange that some BF-ing moms give their babies bottles sometimes for whatever reason. (Don't like NIP, when experimenting with a bottle-refusing baby, when supplementing or weaning to formula, etc.) I mean, I guess you do what you gotta do, but I don't think I could give my own baby a bottle. It would just be Way Too Weird. :-) I did it once, FSR I thought I was having a supply dip one afternoon, and Sprogly was cranky and wouldn't nap, so I gave him a bottle of EBM. It was very strange. The few times I've seen Bloke or Daycare Lady giving him a bottle it was weird, too. I felt strangely uneasy watching. Sprogly has no preference whatsoever, he just scoffs down his milk...I'm not sure if that's what bothered me. |

At least they allow that it CAN be used for breastfeeding! I thought it was a sling with built-in bottle holder at first, but I think it's just the bottle holder. Man that's weird. I was just thinking the other day though that having that free hand is an enourmous unsung advantage of nursing. I can eat my dinner and feed the baby at the same time for instance. At least the babies are getting held though - and since the bottle is sideways from the head, they have some control and can go on/off if they like. An improvement from the babies point of view I should think, and isn't that the real meaning of AP? Not just applied biology? -Liz |
