Nursing in public

Hello everyone I understand that there has been some contention about whether us mothers should be allowed to breastfeed in public places? Personally I say wtf?? If anyone has a problem with us feeding our babies they should feel free to place a blanket over their heads so they don't have to see it!

ggt love ya all

Re: Nursing in public

it's natural plus a baby has to eat... go ahead and feed your child anyone who tries to look is a sad pathetic person anyway.

Re: Nursing in public

I agree, a baby has to eat and you have every right to breastfeed where the hell you want.

People that don't like it don't need to look.

Re: Nursing in public

the thing is i don't care. If she wants to pop a titty out and feed her baby so be it. but i don't want her to freak out when someone looks. you made the choice to feed the baby in public so deal with it.

Re: Nursing in public

I don't see anything wrong with it.

But I think mothers should try and be discreet about it. I know it's a natural thing and people shouldn't look at it in a wrong way, but you do have to admit if you seen a lady just walking done the street with her breast all out breastfeeding her baby, it'd be a bit weird. So no it's not wrong, your baby has to eat but at the same time try & be a bit respectful of others.

Re: Nursing in public

What's so funny is breastfeeding laws are being made in recent years.

Breastfeeding officially became federally legalized in the United States in 1999.

A United States House of Representatives appropriations bill (HR 2490) with a breastfeeding amendment was signed into law on September 29, 1999. It stipulated that no government funds may be used to enforce any prohibition on women breastfeeding their children in Federal buildings or on Federal property. Further, U.S. Public Law 106-58 Sec. 647 enacted in 1999, specifically provides that "a woman may breastfeed her child at any location in a Federal building or on Federal property, if the woman and her child are otherwise authorized to be present at the location."

So like, haven't humans been around for thousands of years? And laws still need to be passed to allow it? ;/

I found this interesting.

In November 2006, Emily Gillette, a 27-year-old from Santa Fe, New Mexico was refused service in Burlington, Vermont after being asked to leave a Freedom Airlines flight by a flight attendant after Gillette refused to breastfeed her child under a blanket.

Re: Nursing in public

It's natural. Baby gotta eat, tit makes their food. Fucking get over it.

But I do have to say, it gets a little awkward as a 17yo male when delivering a coffee or food to a woman who is breastfeeding. You don't know where to look; tit, coffee, baby, their face...it's all gunna end up weird haha. But I don't have a problem with it.

There's nothing wrong with it but it seriously bothers me. I'm just like that.

Re: Nursing in public

It's natural. It should be allowed. I can understand the awkwardness it may cause though. I was at a celebration and went to use the restroom. I had to walk past some lady breast feeding to get to it. Then I had to walk past her to go back to the celebration. It was a bit awkward.
