Quote From: dawndaisy

Men can't sit in a restaurant without a shirt. Not everyone wants to see a woman with her breast exposed while they are trying to eat. It is all about respect. There is nothing wrong with feeding a baby in public or the closeness of the moment. If it is so close then the mother should cover it up and share the moment just with her child.

What about the woman in a low cut shirt? She is showing way more then you would see form a breast feeding mother. Is it really the breast that bothers you or the act of breastfeeding?

closeness is a great benefit of the nursing relationship, like a perk ya know? but the basic human need for nourishment can and will happen anywhere. why are you making yourself a part of their "moment" by looking long enough to be offended? everyday we are going to see things that offend us. but its all relative, just look at the posts here, what is "unattractive" to one, is "beautiful" to another. if you dont want to see it, simply look away.

I have never seen a breastfeeding mother stand up, take off her shirt and bra and then plop back down and brestfeed.... in general woman are discreet because there really isn't a reason not to be.....it's quite easy to lift the corner of my shirt and breastfeed..............

I Am a breastfeeding Mother and yes I do feed my baby out in public that is the most natural way and if anyone has a problem with me doing so please by all means come and tell me so I can tell you how breastfeeding my baby helped save his life and a whole bunch of prayers I would never even think about putting formula in my baby's system by the way what did weomen do when there was no formula?Breastfeed there baby there is a speacial bond with a mother and her child when you nurse them what do you think LOVE is everyone loves their baby,If you ever see me out and I am nursing my baby by all means come up and tell me and I will also tell you to turn your head! Leave us breastfeeding mothers ALONE and let us take care of our babies the way we want to THANK TO BU.
