What are your views on breastfeeding in public?

Are you comfortable when your friend whips one out in middle of your conversation in a restaurant. Do you pause for a second. Look away. Or are you completely on board with women breastfeeding in public.

Re: What are your views on breastfeeding in public?

Yeah. I am. I mean only if they can cover themselves with a shawl or something.

A private part is a private part, breast feeding or no breast feeding

Re: What are your views on breastfeeding in public?

I am not comfortable with anyone poppin' them out and holding them and shoving them into their kid's mouth. As natural and beautiful the act of breastfeeding is, I don't particularly enjoy seeing anyone's boobs. I think a little sharm o hayaa goes a long way. There's all kinds of cover ups available now so you can nurse discreetly.

Maybe the guys would have a different perspective here :D.

You meant Firenze? lol

Re: What are your views on breastfeeding in public?

As far as I know, guys are also pretty uncomfortable with a woman breastfeeding publicly.

Child birth is also a very natural and beautiful process, but honestly we dont want to see ladies lying down by the curbside with their legs spread.

Re: What are your views on breastfeeding in public?

Well Firenze is a guy and really, a guy is a guy :D

Re: What are your views on breastfeeding in public?

Not really...if anything I feel like its probably uncomfortable for them.

Re: What are your views on breastfeeding in public?

Yup i second that.
Secondly i don't want to lose appetite for rest of my life after seeing a live child birth. Bio classes were enough.

Re: What are your views on breastfeeding in public?

It's fine as long as the boobs don't show.

Re: What are your views on breastfeeding in public?

I nursed all three of my boys, and there were plenty of times when I was stuck in public with a hungry baby! However, I was never comfortable breastfeeding in public. I would usually excuse myself to a bathroom or somewhere semiprivate and drag a chair in, while keeping myself as covered as possible. There are also plenty of times I went back out to the car and hung a recieving blanket over the window while I nursed (also covering myself as well as I could!).

If I was at somebody's house, then I would ask to use a bedroom or somewhere else private, even if there were only women around.

Re: What are your views on breastfeeding in public?

^ same here!

Re: What are your views on breastfeeding in public?

I don't think it should be so difficult to be discreet is it?

Re: What are your views on breastfeeding in public?

No. But I even felt uncomfortable if I was at home but male relatives were around, even if I was covered.

Re: What are your views on breastfeeding in public?

Even if u were in a room alone?

I guess I would be okay with doing it in front of my mother (if/when the opportunity rises inshAllah)....but not in front of anyone else. But then again I dont' know--I've stopped thinking about what I would and wouldn't do.
