    I always believed in breast feeding and it's benefits, unfortunately my daughters we're triplets and it wasn't possible for her to do, it was enough to take care of 3 at once. I know it feels funny for some women to breastfeed in public so I could understand that, but nice take though, I hope more women will do the same

    It's a woman's body she should feel free to Breast Feed if she wishes too and the ones who want put their baby on formula nothing should be said to them either.
    A woman's body a woman's decision to Breast Feed or Bottle Feed.

    Not to me. I think it every woman who has a child to be able to breast feed whenever and wherever they choose. The baby's needs come first.

    I am inclined to stand on the side of physicians who advocate formula being exclusively last resort way of feeding babies, and if a mother opts out for it without a really good reason, it should be considered child abuse.

    As for you exposing boob in public to feed your child... Eh, I don't think it's gross, but many people do. For their sake you should seek to cover yourself, it's basic kindness and courtesy.
    I do think it is indecent though and so is the cleavage you compared to it.

    unless a doctor has a valid reason for you not to breastfeed it is your duty as a female/mother to breastfeed. I strongly suggest at least 2yrs and if they want a nipple after that let them.

    There are also a lot of benefits to masturbation. But we dont do that in public. Unless we want some thrills. 'Its healthy and natural' is a really bad argument for 'it should be allowed in public so I dont have to walk 50 feet to the nearest restroom'. You could make the same argument for peeing. 'Its unhealthy to hold your pee and pee is sterile. Why can't I just pee in public?' And pee doesn't carry HIV like breast milk does either. But hey if you want creeps staring at you trying to find your nipple thats okay with me. Not like it affects me.

    I was fine with the whole breast feeding in public thing... up until a few months back. A woman was breast feeding her child at a local diner, the child popped loose and out sprang a leak right into the aisle and right next to me. Sorry ladies, but you might as well pull your pants down and take a leak. Now, i see a lady breast feeding and im not sitting anywhere near. In my opinion, if you wanna breast feed in public you should be required to have an open carry permit that shows you've been properly trained to keep from accidentally assaulting anyone near by. You wanna do it in public, keep your child's one course meal discretely covered or if you can't do that then in a place where you aren't trying to make a statement to the world like discretely amongst a group of people or with your back to he rest of the restaurant or crowd. There is nothing wrong with keeping just a touch of discretion while still doing what you need to do.

      The woman can't help it, the baby decided to pop off. You shouldn't need any kind of permit or training to feed your child. It wouldn't be gross if I was formula feeding my baby and formula milk spilt on the floor would it? It's the same thing, just one comes naturally from the body.

      Not really... i was being sarcastic. On the other hand, i really don't wanna sit next to any breast feeding moms after that and i'll thank them not to sit next to me if im already seated.

    I'm Australian and her its (rightly) illegal to discriminate and stop women from breastfeeding wherever they please.

    I've never understood the opposition, if you don't like what you see, simply look away, simple as that.

    Breast milt contain antibodies and interferons, which are necessary for your baby to survive in the early stages of his life. If any child die in early age due to infection or common fever, hang her mother for that.

    I plan to breast feed when I have children until they are 1 and half year old each. It is important and healthier than formula feeding babies. It keeps the mommy healthy and off of drugs and eating right.

    Yes breastfeeding is good, but you can at least turn around and stand in a corner and do it.
    When I'm in a restaurant I don't want to see a baby drinking on a breast. That just ruins my appetite lol.

    Just don't breastfeed while everyone can see it/being very obvious. Turning around makes things easier
