file Feeding your baby BLW style

I didnt see the point of tellin u that made me feel crapp coz u obviously dnt understand BLW Otherwise u wldnt have made those comments.
Would u have offered me support if I told u that I felt crappy?
Would u have gone back to research more on BLW & change ur opinion of how food shld go into a 5months old tummy?
What would it have accomplished exactly?
Would having a long heated debate have changed anything?
U hoped u were not stepping on toes.... what were u hoping u were doing instead? Inspiring & motivating? As a mom urself how were u hoping Id react?
Like I said before, I replied on our thread what I needed to say to u. I explained my position & what Im doing on our thread.
No, Im not intimidated by u in the least, dont even know u. I wasnt gonna sit there & argue/try to convince somebody who dsnt understand what the heck Im doing bout what Im doing. Whats the point in that coz we will never agree.
No u did not step on any toes coz I do respect that u have a diff opinion from me & a diff way of raising ur kids so it didnt make me mad enough to confront u (no point) It irritated me.

After a nights sleep, I feel I can answer so much better - without being nasty.

Yeah, I do hav emy ionion, and yeah zodwa came here for support, what gets me is that she said, oh no you did not step on any toes, when she really wanted to say yes I did... I would completely understand if she told me, I've upset her, I am not totally bitchy... maybe just a little bitchy :-) The reasons I gave for feeling uncomfy with blw, is exactly the reasons I think anybody who does it, must be really UNparanoid. I never meant to imply anything else, only said WHY I won't be doing it.

So zodwa, next time you have a problem with something I said, tell me about it, and I can make it clear for you, before you make assumptions, cause believe me, it takes just as much braveness, to be honest and straight, than it does do blw. Am I really that intimidating that you feel you can not be honest with me?

Maybe this was saying the wrong thing again, but I am not someone who keeps her mouth shut in order to keep the peace.

Thank u Marijke, i didnt come here to bad mouth anybody, was feeling crappy & irritated & came here for support.
I did answer ur post on our forum EP & that is all I felt like saying to u. Since I am a BLW mom I came here for support, was not talking to u.
Im intitled to have a reaction & intitled to voice it where I know I will get support.
not once did I bite ur head off or use foul language

I don't think she was out to 'go behind your back' or anything like that, she was feeling down as I know many BLW mommies feel because other moms have harsh opinions about the topic.

Trust me, when she is 4/5 months down the line with BLW these things will roll right off her back. She only came here for support on her decision.

MMmmmmm, I'm not interested in fighting - just strange though, that she did not say anything to my face, but came blabbering here instead. Which is fine.

EP, please, she didn't say that it was you. If I wanted to start a fight with you I would have gone to the thread you chat on and attacked you there. That is why I came here and listed what I know to be true on this thread because it is the thread for BLW mommies to support each other.

If you are commenting on my comment of Zodwa being braver than other mommies (thats not what I said, that is the short version) I was talking exclusively about feeding. Full stop.
