My own mother refused to let me use the word 'oblong' instead of 'rectangle'. Which is just odd, to be honest.
What stuff do you think is common?

you should be proud of yourself for doing 9 weeks!the first few weeks are the most important anyway :)
my gripe was with the women who don't do it for vanity reasons.
i should admit that i breastfed mainly out of sheer laziness, greed (i got to sit on my arse demanding tea, cake and ice cream like jabba the hutt as mini bruxelles guzzled happily at my udders) and the inability to cope with more than 2 seconds of wailing baby. so, that probably doesn't make me any better than the vanity crowd.
but the milk squirting was definitely an unexpected bonus :D
btw, don't let the breastfeeding mafia scare you off. i'm sure once they realise why you're not dangling your bubba from your boobage, they'll be a lot more understanding.
