A Cheeky Answer 4 anyone Who Wants To Comment On Feeding In Public


i took my son into a cafe when he was about 6 months old and he wanted his boobie...he wasnt going to take no for an answer yanking at my top giving me his little gurgle...and as i always go to this cafe when i am out shopping the owner didnt mind at all...she was used to it...

well anyway i was never one of these ones to just lob it out so i positioned a blanket over baby and let him get on with it...there was an old man and his wife sitting opposite with a couple of builders sitting the other side...already bashful which i found really funny thing is with men i can understand em...they like to think that womens boobs are for their pleasure...yeah right they should be sooooo lucky...

anyway this old lady starts tutting her head off and i overheard her saying to her husband that is disgusting she should take him sum where private...i was fuming so i said to her excuse me love...evry1 looked...would you eat your dinner on the toilet...no she replied...so i said well dont expect my baby to then...needless to say she was the one blushing unable to answer and i left with my head held high...i think the builders nearly choked on their food...go for it gurls...dont let anyone tell you its wrong nature is nature after all...

i absolutely hate women who frown upon breastfeeding...they should know better...especially the older ones as most of them breastfed...i always said i would never breastfeed in public until i had no choice,,,as i would of died of embarrassment but my babys needs come b4 shame and bloody ignorance so i thought sod em...like i said men dont know any better...WOMEN should!!!!

Well done tanya! Now you've done it once you can do it more often

The majority of the older generation actually bottlefed their kids, doctors told them it was better

Great response!

And you know what? If you hadn't breastfed your baby and were sitting there eating your dinner, and your baby was screaming...you'd have had a bad look too because your baby was screaming.
