 I have a five month old daughter that is exclusively breastfed.  I do breastfeed in public, and at first I covered up with a blanket.  When it started getting too hot to cover her up, I just did it discretely... I understand that there are mothers of older children who may not want their children seeing it.  However I was shocked to learn that Tennessee, where I learn, does not have a law stating that breastfeeding in public is NOT considered public indecency.  I have never found it indecent to see a mother breastfeeding, even long before I had a baby myself.  

I have heard people suggest feeding my daughter in a bathroom stall because they thought it was indecent.  I thought this was absolutely ridiculous.  I don't eat in a bathroom stall... why would I feed my daughter there??  I think America should be much more accepting of this issue.
