On the contrary, it's natural & most likely the healthiest option. We get that. What is frustrating is having to see naked breasts in public - especially in a restaurant or grocery store - where one certainly did not expect to see such a thing.<BR/><BR/>People! They make blankets, shawls, apron cover-ups - a whole slew of items specifically made for just this purpose. I know many a mother who has successfully used them. And they also didn't feel the need to jump on this silly soapbox and feel entitled to do whatever they want, wherever they want.<BR/><BR/>Please - breastfeed in public. It's your right by Oregon state law. Just cover up those breasts - we don't need to see it and I shouldn't have to "avert my eyes" when I'm shopping at my local grocery store or having coffee at Starbucks. One doesn't expect to see nudity at such location and while it isn't my "right" to not be offended in public, it would be nice if those mothers opting to showcase their breasts would try to allow the same courtesy to those uncomfortable with it that they so much want themselves.<BR/><BR/>You can be a good mother without exposing yourself.
