Guest guest Posted May 22, 2006 Report Share Posted May 22, 2006 I had no problems breastfeeding my 2 kids as a vegetarian. I mean, there are entire cultures that are largely vegetarian and they have kids. ;-) My eldest child is a carnivore. She LOVES meat. When she was four she asked me, " why don't you eat the fish, mama? It's already dead! " HA. My youngest child is mostly vegetarian. She really hates the idea of eating meat, but eats it very rarely. When she was about 5 she was eating a hamburger and she asked me where it came from. I said cow. She said, does it kill the cow? I said yes. She said, no it doesn't! I said, " ok. " :-) I never pushed vegetarianism on either of them and played it pretty low key when they were younger. I feel like it's a personal decision and I know how it can be a challenge at times, so I want them to make that choice on their own. -s- tabitha wrote: > I was just wanderiing, was there any problems being a vegetarian and > breastfeeding?

Guest guest Posted May 22, 2006 Report Share Posted May 22, 2006 When my husband was little, he wanted NOTHING to do wiht eating chicken, because he loved animals...his mom had to tell him that Byerly's (the grocery store she shops at) " makes " their chicken, so it was ok to eat. ;-D although, he has no problem now...and every vegetarian dish i make he keeps saying, ya know that would be SO good with chicken, or beef, in it. *sigh* oh well. at least he does try everything i make!!
