Ive read so many comments saying 'my children don't need to see that' and 'I don't mind it but like at least cover up' and 'we aren't allowed to wee in public so why breastfeed in public.'
1. If you're teaching your children to sexualise breasts rather than allowing them to be used for what they were made for FEEDING BABIES! Then you are the problem.
2. Not every child tolerates being covered up, would you like to eat your meal under a hot blanket? I don't think so? If you don't like it, don't look.
3. If you are comparing urinating and pooping to a child being fed, with breasts, breasts that were made to feed babies with, then you have serious issues.

I hate people who make a big deal out of it like c'moon get a grip . Child needs to eat just like anyone else stop making it into a big whoop . Dont see anyone complaining when Rihanna or Minaj walk around with they boobies half out ! You see more boob in celebrities that you let your children idolise thhan when a mum is feeding her baby!

Thing is, breasts have been sexualised as its a fetish.. Just as liking feet or bums or whatever.. Truth is you see less when breastfeeding than what you see on day time telly!! Anyone who thinks it's okay to flaunt breasts sexually but not for what nature intended are completely pig ignorant! And in my eyes lack a few brain cells.. I don't let it annoy me anymore! I will breastfeed again and I won't give a rats ass.. I'm protected by law :) xx

I think breastfeeding is beautiful, it really does my head in when people make sly comments about needing to cover up and what not, the amount of conversations ive had with people and not even notice they were feeding is unreal, the more mommas that do it the more it'll inspire others too, I just hope one day people can feed in public and it be as normal as buying a butty from a shop @b.margyte @emmajo xx

I have to admit I don't know anyone whose breastfed in public and gotten stick for it.. If anyone says I need to cover up as they don't need to see it, I'll tell them to cover their ugly face as I don't wanna see that either! Or just ignore anyone who says anything.. They'll say it to annoy you but just pretend you didn't hear them that'll annoy them more.. The time they took to approach you could have been time to look away.. Xx

I have heard a lot of comments like 'I support breastfeeding but you don't need to do it in public especially in a restaurant where people are eating' everyone's allowed their own opinion but it angers me people still think like that, obviously don't support breastfeeding at all, yet if they had to listen to the child screaming and crying while they ate their meals they'd complain about that too xx @emmajo

children need to be tought that breast are for feeding. I breast fed my youngest for a bit and did it in front of my eldest son. He was told from day one that women have breast so they can feed their babies. It is perfectly natural

Definitely! People will complain about anything though.. The stigma around breastfeeding will never go away so long as there are parents that don't teach their children it's what they are for.. Some women can't breastfeed for a number of reasons I had to stop because I'm anaemic and my son wasn't getting all the goodies he needed and it had affected my supply.. I'm gunna be trying again with this one and all my children will grow up to know breasts are for food, not a sexual object.. Yes they can be used in a sexual way but they're designed for feeding! I saw a woman breastfeeding on he bus when I was early in my pregnancy with my son and I didn't feel disgusted or the need to tell her to cover up ect.. I just looked away, not because I didn't like it but because I'd have looked weird staring at a women feeding her baby.. 😂😂 xx

I definitely want to breastfeed my son, it's one of the things im most excited about, not everyone can and not everybody chooses too but I wouldn't ever tell a women bottle feeding her baby in public that I was 'wrong' or 'I didn't want to see it' it's just so strange how people behave now a days, xxx

It's weird but I actually never met anyone who would tell me something bad about breastfeeding even though my son is already 2 years and 8 months old. I think people in Russia are shy. I was sure many thought that what I'm doing is weird, I saw it in their eyes, but it's ok to just think, I don't mind :) I feel completely fine feeding my son and i even think of it as of some favor to the world because it's poisoned by awful formula marketing. Maybe one day people are going to realize how they've been fooled and there's actually only one right choice.

Nobody had bottles back in the day, everyone would've had to breastfeed, and it isn't exactly like people get their boobs out and walk around, most of the time you can't see anything anyway, everyone goes on about making the best choices for their children but when it comes down to it they don't, it really upsets me when I see people being slated for Doing something so natural x
