I say thats their choice but I couldn't do it! I didn't "flop" it out in public as there are weirdos out there who will try to have a look and I didn't like that idea.. But if my baby was hungry I managed to push a shopping trolley with one hand (albeit rather awkwardly LOL) and feed a blanket covered baby with the other! People could tell what I was doing but I didn't care! I got more smiles then disgusted looks! I still feed my 16 mth old son in public whilst sitting in a lunch area in the middle of a shopping complex and it doesnt embarass me when I "accidentally" show some flesh! I never liked parent rooms as I found sitting hidden away (for as long as baby wants to feed) was unecessary and a waste of time when I could be window shopping or sitting people watching! LOL If someone stared..I stared back! Heehee I know I didnt look away first :)Now my son tries to feed anywhere and I am proud to let everyone know that I still breastfeed him! :)SPnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3739118490318763551.post-11169786367683194862010-02-26T21:23:00.134+08:002010-02-26T21:23:00.134+08:00As far as Im concerned, Colin Barnett dosen't ...As far as Im concerned, Colin Barnett dosen't have a Uterus, so shouldn't have the right to choose what is "socially acceptable"" and what isn't in this backward state.<br /><br />As a Woman who has consciously chosen to not have Children (....yet... and much to my Husband's to be, Mother and Mother In-Law disgust UGH!) it worries me to think that there are People out there who look down new Mothers who choose to breast feed their Children to give them a better start to life.<br /><br />That being said, I am all for Breast Feeding, but I am not for Women flopping the girls out for all public to see as they feed their Child.

And no mother should be criticesed for what they choose to do!<br />The worst was when joshie was 6 weeks old we were at PMH because he had to have an operation, and I had already explained to a nurse that I fed Joshie EBM (Expressed Breast Milk) and I told her all my reasons and she was fine with it. Then the Dr who was ... See morelooking after Joshies case came in and somehow it came up and he said "right while you're in here and you have all these lactation consultants around lets see if we can get your boy breast fed!" and I was so mad! Josh was 6 weeks old and we were going through the trauma of one minute thinking he had a bit of colic to the next minute him requiring emergency surgery and this Dr wants to talk to me about breast feeding!<br />Arrggh!<br />Sorry to ramble! I could go on forever about the topic!<br />At the end of the day as long as your baby gets fed that is all they care about!NMnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3739118490318763551.post-20592538758287776002010-02-26T19:48:37.543+08:002010-02-26T19:48:37.543+08:00i feel another blog coming from this NM... even if...i feel another blog coming from this NM... even if u had copious amounts of milk and chose to bottle feed joshie, its your choice yet made to feel like you should be ashamed. its the same i suppose with people who choose to have a caesarian from the get go - made to feel like they aren't doing it properly. your body, your baby, your choice. such a political issue!!!<br />p.s. the gulp made me laugh :PGlowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08156015996147898156noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3739118490318763551.post-41951035976727883212010-02-26T19:47:54.373+08:002010-02-26T19:47:54.373+08:00i too would hide out in parents lounges, but not b...i too would hide out in parents lounges, but not because I breast fed but because I **gulp** bottle fed Joshie and was so ashamed by it! I expressed breast milk which he was given until 3 and a half months, which is when, even though I was taking tablets prescribed by my doctor to increase lactation, my milk dried up!!!!<br />So I really hope you get to...

I fed Kass for 15 months but could only manage to feed Gabe for 6 months (due to excruciating cracked, bleeding festering nipples and constant mastitis). Thankfully I had never experienced any discrimination while breastfeeding in public. <br /><br />Unfortunately for me breastfeeding my kids did not prevent them from having asthma :(.Debnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3739118490318763551.post-78115147096926293502010-02-25T16:33:30.019+08:002010-02-25T16:33:30.019+08:00Hot under the collar, yes.
