Due to the health benefits of breast feeding, i adopted an exclusive breast feeding programme for my kids. My daughter has never taken anything apart from bosom milk not even water and she'll be four months in a couple of weeks. Due to this, i practically go everywhere with her. Whenever she cries in public, i have to look for a private/secluded place to feed her but if there's none, i'll have no choice but do it in the open but cover my breast and the exposed region with a shawl. There are occasions i've had to park by the roadside or bustop while driving just to suckle her. Afterall, how many mothers would hear the cries and wails of her child yet ignore it? There's nothing really wrong with breast feeding in public so long as its done with decency and little or no exposure. 2 Likes |

Lord Babs: How fun and romantic would it be if fathers could dîckfeed their babies. But why can't men feed their babies, using their phallus? Afterall s.perm isn't poisonous to health. Why is nature so selectively partial? At least, we could thus have dîckfeeding, and not only breåstfeeding.It wouldn't surprise me to know your father fed you with his whatever. From your lines I bet you had your fair share of it. 1 Like |

REALITY101: I'm have nothing against it but I don't wanna see. I think there's something they call nursing braNursing bra is not meant to hide the breast when breastfeeding but to carry and hold it properly (protection against sagging) because the breast is usually fuller and heavier when nursing a baby. 1 Like |

Why is it that the Hot, sexy, curvy and sexually attractive mothers always find a way to hide their soft luscious breasts while the not-so-hot ones show it all...

I wonder why we all seemed to have problems with mothers breastfeeding in public, yet so comfortable with our young girls exposing bosoms that are even more sagged than the ones being suckled by babies? I wonder who's even turned on by a bosom being suckled by a baby? 3 Likes |

joymary7: As for M̶̲̥̅Ε̲̣̣̣̥.. My son cries anytime we get to public places ( market, church, classroom, cinema) and i feed him.

I'm a paramedic and the reaction of a young woman and a much older woman when they come to the clinic and I have to examine them is always different.The young ones are somewhat shy but the older ones really just don't care.I'm professional though.I don't mess with anyone. 1 Like |

Personally, I believe if a nursing mother should breastfeed a baby / infant in public, she should do it in a subtle manney. There are light baby / nursing covers for this very purpose. My wife doesn't breastfeed our baby in public. The same was adopted with our first child. Our baby daughter doesn't cry for food when we're out and about - shopping, restaurant, church etc. If we're in the car, she does sometimes cry for a feed, and then I can pull over when it's safe to do so, then Mrs. Siena can take her out of her car seat, and feed her. Never when the car is on the move, regardless of how loudly she may cry. Exclusive breastfeeding is okay - up to a point. The only issue as I see it, is the mother can not leave the baby with the father, for any length of time. Let's assume she had to go into hospital for any reason, what happens to the baby? Not all babies will take expressed breastmilk from a bottle. Or assuming the nursing mother has to go on any form of strong medication, sometimes it's advised she doesn't breastfeed during that period. Our first child was breastfed up till 6 months, the same will be done for our baby, she'll be 6 months in January. She's already on solids, so she'll go onto formula, making feeds in public easier. And making it easier (and possible) for Mrs. Siena to go out, leaving the kids with daddy to bond. 3 Likes |

from my experience - i dont see anything sexual about brest feeding. beside brest never look exposed if the nipple aint PUBLIC!!. AND WITH NO NIPPLE SHOWING ITS JUST A STRETCH OF FLESH- NOTHING EROTIC!! all this new found shame about brest feeding in public is just fallout of nigerians trying to adopt american philosophy. and americans are kings of artificiality. Americans are also kings of pervesion sexualizing everything!!! what an african wouldnt sexualize they'll .. when i was a teen theres was a lady who visited our complex, she was a patient and i noticed she'd get so shy breast feeding her baby when i passed by, sometimes i'd b running in to change for a football match and totally unaware that she's b feeding,but about to pass by i'll see her trying to shuffle and hide her boobs- i felt embarrassed for her. many years later this memory still sticks in my mind. if she acted - or pretended to act like it was nothing i wouldnt have noticed - she was black - typical northener- flat or inconsequential boobs - no se i full chest- in retrospect i think she was foolish. feed your baby and get out of the way , who's looking at or interested in your booobs! most men dont care. and if most men act like they care - i can say 90% dont do so in a sexual way,believe me- its just the fascination - boobs are rare and fascinating things to behold . the shape is unusual - round, no bone-! yet they're firm! soft all over!! with a crowning tip!! - omo person wey say God no exist should look at a boob- the physical shape of it is always fascinating,beautiful and always always good to look at WITHOUT BEING SEXUAL. so why get shy about whippiing out to feed baby. shiiiit. like i said, i felt ashamed for the woman. if you're embarrassed the shame will transfer to your neighbour. if you're not - they wont feel embarrassed. anyway, men who've seen enough women brest feeding think as much of boobs and baby as they think of a woman making a phone call. see enough bobby and it becomes a no big deal. its only the artificial americans who put this silly self consciousness into us. 1 Like |

I agree with you. If people have a problem then they should look away. I have no problem with mothers breastfeeding in public or what women wear on the beach or what dress they wear. But men have to control themselves. It is OK for admiring glances , but no more than that. Many of these women have Husbands and to stare would be disrespectful . smartmom: 1 Like |
