regurgitation

[phat_girl]

This girl that i know has come over from hong kong and had a baby in uk, shes currently living at her mum's till her hubby flys over and collects her and recently i went round to visit the new born baby boy. i found that the baby's mother couldnt be bothered with looking after her son much and instead the baby's grandmother does everything, bath, change, feed...even strap the baby onto her own back while working the wok's in the take away while she sits around watching tv....

but wats more worrying is that besides giving the baby milk to drink the grandmother keeps chewing up bits of food in her own mouth and spitting it onto a spoon to feed the baby boy....i was really really shocked cos it was disgusting to see. i felt rather sick when she chewed up some chicken then spooned it into the babys mouth, she did the same with sweets and treats too....the grandmother said that this is normal and thats how she weened her 3 daughters onto solids...

i can seriously say my mother did not regurgitate food from her mouth to feed to me when i was a baby...so am i the only one that doesnt get fed like birds or something?...and if so i am not going to start sicking food up to feed my future kids no matter what!

I was brought up on SMA milk and baby food, and that is what I am going to do with my lil babies.

... The mother is also not fit to be a mother? It's her baby, how can she let her mother keep it around the kitchen?

the baby's mum doesnt seem to be bonding well with her baby son, when she saw how shocked i was with the feeding of muched food from the grandmother's mouth she looked rather embarrassed and changed the subject of conversation....the baby's mother has been brought up in uk and i think she knows its unhygienic but she also doesnt want to handle the child too much herself....

How old is the baby? Surely if it is new born should they be only having milk?? and that is sick what the mother does! Fair enough shes the grandmother but still.
as for your friend she must have had doubts at the back of her mind that she didn’t want a baby for her not to be a responsible mother but yet she still gave birth

the babys mommy was 30 years old when she got married so hence why she was eager to breed before she past her sell by date but she herself is a mummys girl and somehow its not helpped....

the baby is now 6 months old and last i saw the grandmother she proudly told me she chewed and fed the grandson with curried rice.

holy mary mother of god!

are we still living in the cave man age? this kind of behaviour should not exist it todays society.
your friend should have her head examined and evaluated to see if she is fit to have and take care of children.
The grandmother should get a job at the local zoo and feed the animals they way she does.
The poor baby should be with some proper parents that would care for him proper in a normal humane kind of way.

I would think its a little primitive. I mean that how babies are fed before we have opposing thumbs. Wet kissing is a sign of affection because it runs off from mother feeding babies.

im quite thankful that my mum wasnt that affectionate in feeding me as a baby then....i rather not have 40% curry and rice mixed with 60% saliva.

I would just like to say that such practices hasnt happend in our household and hopefully will not happen to my children or decendents.
unless humans evolve to become giant birds overnight and we have to feed our you ones by sicking food out.

that babys mother should be put down for doing nothing!
and that grandmother should be eaten by an eagle for how she feeds the baby
