I’ve been raped… part deux!

If you are new to my blog- before you read part deux, you will want to go read THIS one.  So she who must not be named as to save my marriage has struck again.  I had the ever so unlucky occurrence of having my ears raped again this past Saturday.

She asked me the loaded question, “You aren’t still nursing Makenzie are you?”  Now if you were asked that, wouldn’t it immediately put you on the defensive?  I, being the argumentative bitch ever so lovely person that I am, said “of course I am, why wouldn’t I be?”  at which time all HELL broke loose.  I had to sit through nearly thirty minutes of hearing her tell me things like “you better stop that NOW!”, “she’s too old for that”, “can’t you take a pill to dry that up?”, “why don’t you bind yourself”, “she has teeth!”

So now again, I am forced to say it one more time… so listen closely before my own head blows up or I smack you silly- whichever comes first…

I will nurse Makenzie until my boobs fall off or she and I decide we’re done.  Period.  End of story.  You can shove your useless opinions about my extended breastfeeding in my ears all you want- it will not change the fact that I will continue to do it.

Those pills you want me to take to dry up my milk were banned several years ago because many women died from taking them! I guess you never got that memo. And why in the world would I bind myself when both Makenzie and I still enjoy nursing?

Makenzie only nurses once maybe twice a day. I never breastfeed her in public. It’s not like I walk around all day with her hanging off the tit. She gets all of her nutrition from real food- she only nurses at this point for comfort. And there is nothing wrong with that- she is still a toddler and likes to be cuddled.

If it makes you so uncomfortable just thinking about it, then don’t ask.  You are going to wish you hadn’t asked one day when I have had enough and whip my somewhat large, milky titty out and nurse her in front of you just because I can.  Maybe that will finally render you speechless.  I doubt it though.

Yes, I’m still aware that Makenzie has a mouth full of teeth- I help her brush them twice daily for goodness sake. Teeth have nothing to do with your ability to suck. I guess it’s been a LONG time since you sucked on anything or you’d know an experienced sucker NEVER uses her teeth ate a Popsicle.

I would think you would be happy that I am doing what is best for my daughter.  Studies have shown that extended breastfeeding makes children smarter and more likely to go to college, not to mention it gives them immunity from several diseases out there.  I’m pretty sure no studies have shown that breastfeeding turns little girls into lesbians.  If I come across such article, I’ll be sure to let you know.

You must lead a pretty boring life if all you have to obsess over is my boobs.  Maybe you are the lesbian… food for thought.

Oh and just because Madison chooses to read books like Twilight and Harry Potter, it doesn’t mean she’s practicing Satanic rituals, but if you’d like to leave some fingernail clippings and a lock of your hair on your way out, we will see what we can do ;)
