I hope to breastfeed, but agree, I won't be hanging it out for the world to see.<br /><br />I agree totally that breastfeeding is natural and what God intended. So is sex! I'm sure I'd get arrested for that in public!<br /><br />BelBelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13210867058200304109noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8999886252145403258.post-11736319562688110672010-05-22T12:22:20.220-07:002010-05-22T12:22:20.220-07:00Breasts are used to sell everything from cars to f...Breasts are used to sell everything from cars to fast food. We see young girls marching down runways modeling clothing that leaves little to the imagination with breasts prominently displayed. The idea that an exposed breast in public performing what it is biologically designed to do (sustain human life) is somehow indecent just goes to show how removed from reality we have all become. Relieving yourself in public is not the same as breast feeding (obviously the two cannot be equated in terms of public health, sanitation etc...). I am sorry that you were not able to breast feed and very glad that there are a number of options available to mothers in this day and age. Your personal choice does not negate the fact that breast feeding remains the healthiest (in most cases), least expensive, and most globally accessible method for feeding babies. Given the choice between advertising drivel and a mother feeding her baby I will take the naked, NATURAL, nourishing breast any day of the week.Lia Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05352236748104457918noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8999886252145403258.post-7027024840753817132010-04-08T18:17:44.564-07:002010-04-08T18:17:44.564-07:00You are so funny!

We go there a lot with my 7 year old daughter and 4 year old boy. We live in Renton. I am pregnant with our third and I'm currently 36 weeks, but I have a planned cesarean for April 27th. Thanks for the laughs! I needed it today! :) <br /><br />JaneThe Keevy Familyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17102968201525264437noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8999886252145403258.post-65589529793980806732010-03-18T15:29:42.710-07:002010-03-18T15:29:42.710-07:00You are seriously SOOO FUNNY!!

I don't think it's necessary for anyone to comment one way or the other regarding how or where a mother chooses to feed her babe, so long as she is loving. Even if you find it "offensive", it's hard to imagine that it would bother me enough to comment on it, as you say, publicly. As I recall, when my babies nursed, THEY covered my nipples. Not much of interest showed, no matter whether we were at home or out.Babshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12287801457058732328noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8999886252145403258.post-34510472914278703962010-03-01T09:17:26.090-08:002010-03-01T09:17:26.090-08:00Oh Kate-you always make me LOL when I read your bl...Oh Kate-you always make me LOL when I read your blog.

I have nursed in my car and in dressing rooms- whatever I need to do. Modesty has been an issue for me in the past- and I would pump and bottle, if I felt it necessary.<br /><br />However, let's get down to the nitty gritty here, it sounds like the real issue is that this mother does not seem to have any respect of herself! To be quite comfortable hanging all over the place is alarming. I have no desire for the general public to view my stretch marks, the unrecognizable bumps that used to be perky breasts, and any hanging- post baby skin. It has nothing to do with being ashamed of breastfeeding and everything to do with discretion. I think some women get a cheap thrill out of nursing in public because they almost want a reaction. I am not one of those women. I just want to feed my baby in peace!<br /><br />When it comes to age, I am in a gradual wean with my child. I understand that nursing is natural, however, I also feel that they outgrow it and wonder what some women do that causes their little ones to suckle for years upon years! Mine is already interested in solids and losing interest in me. Some women believe in 'child led weaning', but I don't get that? Are we going to 'child led potty train' and let our kids go to school pooping their pants because we don't want to let them grow up or give them boundaries?<br /><br />Do you think you would like to try nursing again with baby 2?Lindsayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15162605774338592027noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8999886252145403258.post-86932991752313834932010-02-27T19:17:18.464-08:002010-02-27T19:17:18.464-08:00I WAS going to photograph my nipple and post it wi...I WAS going to photograph my nipple and post it with my comment to see if Soren had qualified it to be of the Nat-Geo variety, but Christian gave me a warning look and said, "Honey, no."Betsy Yateshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13595326344229745711noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8999886252145403258.post-71194191778475211502010-02-27T16:32:26.772-08:002010-02-27T16:32:26.772-08:00Unfortunately, lactating breasts don't resembl...Unfortunately, lactating breasts don't resemble the Playboy tits we are all striving for; they are much more similar to National Geographic photos. Probably because the women in NG nurse their babies. <br /><br />I am visiting my in-laws for the weekend and was actually trying to discreetly nurse my 20 month old when I read this post. I try not to make them uncomfortable. <br /><br />It is really hard to make everyone comfortable...I usually choose my baby.
