[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The latest picture posted by Gisele with her breastfeeding her daughter while getting glammed up just rubbed me the wrong way, but to be fair, Gisele B annoys me in general with her smug comments about giving birth and breastfeeding, like she has it all figured out.

So last night I was passing by the TV while the photo was on the news and commented to DH how annoying I find her. DH said he thought she was doing a great thing by promoting BF, and clearly it is very important to her (implying that if a woman didn't still BF with a one year old, she must not have put a high importance on it). From there things really went downhill and of course we ended up fighting about our own issues and not really Gisele - I think nobody should be passing judgement on other moms about how long or if they breastfeed. I myself did it with both kids for about 6 months, but I am a working mom and once I start pumping during the day, my supply goes down and things just come to a natural end pretty quickly.

I think DH believes I didn't try hard enough, and that really upsets me, but it is not why I am posting. I am just curious, does anyone else find that photo irritating? At best, I find it counterproductive if the goal is to promote BF and an attitude of women can have it all, since most of us are not Gisele Bundchen with all her money and glamorous life. At worst, I think it is obnoxiously smug. And yes, I am more than a little jealous:)[/quote]

Yeah. Hate to break it to you, but DH thinks Gisele is hot, and wants to bone her. Don't be jealous, though. Like she would have him.[/quote]
