Salma Hayek: I'm Addicted to Breastfeeding
Fox ^ | 11/11/2008 | Fox

Posted on Tuesday, November 11, 2008 3:46:21 PM by Red in Blue PA

Salma Hayek may soon need rehabilitation for an addiction.

The actress, who gave birth to daughter Valentina in 2007, says she can't stop breastfeeding.

She said: "I'm like an alcoholic. It is like, I don't care if I cry, I don't care if I am fat, I am just going to do it for one more week, one more month, and then when I see how much good it is doing her and I can't stop."

48. Envy has a very specific meaning and, I'm sure that's right.
Envy is three headed and is what you feel when others exclude you from a good you want -- unlike jealousy which is generally a two headed thing.

11. Cause she was a VP candidate
and we wanted to try and get a handle on what kind of person she is? Or are we not to question our vice-presidential candidates?

Why else would you interrupt our nice boob thread to mention Palin? She doens't even have nice boobs! You should be ashamed!

But your concern is duly noted... :eyes:

Because Palin's a slow-moving train-wreck-- her carcass on display by her own volition, her hubris heralded as the Second Coming, and her "down-home, folksy charm" coming across as nothing more than a thin veneer to cover her ignorance...

5. As long as she's not breastfeeding the kid at 8 y.o.
(something I actually witnessed a woman in a former apt complex do) she's probably OK. In many cultures children are breastfed until 3 or so. I never had much luck with it with my kids, but if it works for her, why kvetch?

24. Yeah, there seems to be a point past which it's ..well, odd...
Edited on Tue Nov-11-08 06:06 PM by junofeb
The lady in our apts was married to some guy who was a scientologist (I think, I don't remember the exact cult but there was always a bunch of dianetics-type shit at their home). He was gone 9/10ths of the time prosteletysing his way across Seattle and by her admission, f-ing around on her too. She had some major issues and I always suspected abuse. She was breastfeeding a three year-old and I remember the shock I had when her 8-year-old walked up and pulled out her breast to nurse. I said nothing at the time, I'm live-and-let-live, but I found it pretty weird nonetheless.

8. Of all the things Freepers have been obsessed with, this one I can't blame them for


I'd say they're worthy of obsession.

37. Has that stopped them from being stupid?
Edited on Tue Nov-11-08 08:30 PM by Juniperx
Or doing stupid things? The entire Andy fiasco was lived out here on DU, and the Freepers were stupid enough to continue in their murder! That one incident alone tells me their site is worthy of close scrutiny. And if we can dig at them for their overt stupidity in the process, so be it.


I don't give a flying rats ass what they read here, but I do care very much that DUers keep an eye on them. Some here have a stomach that can take Freeperville, I cannot. I prefer to see what other DUers find interesting or dangerous enough to post here. I think they do us all a service.


IMHO, your little dunce hat is on the other noggin.

16. One of my friends breastfed her kids until they were three
and I know of people who go until the kid starts school.

Personally, I'd stop when the kid was old enough to ask for it by name in public, but that's just me.

Hayek can do whatever she pleases.

18. The kid will stop on their own
when they are ready. My daughter abruptly just stopped one day totally (20 months old) on her own. I wouldn't have been able to nurse her even if I wanted to. She wanted no more of it. I guess that is the "natural" end to it.

22. Well, good for Salma. That IS what they're for ,,,
... and it's terrific when health and aesthetics converge, imho. Something's right with the world. I was once told that the proper functioning of a healthy body SHOULD have a pleasure component. Whether it's defecation, urination, sexual relations, breast-feeding, or merely deep breathing of fresh air ... it's all good when it's working right.

She'll probably stop when her daughter goes to pre-school, if not before. So what?

And a Hollywood type no less!

Good for Salma! Boob juice is really good for babies! Moms should boob feed their kids as long as possible! I only stopped because the little dudes grew sharp teeth... yeeeouch!

:rofl:


Pssst... who is she, this Salma person? I don't watch movies in color anymore:)

28. LOL. I dare say, it's probably not as much of psychological interest
in her breastfeeding as much as it is that they would love to be present.
