But why should a baby have to wait to eat when food is readily available in order to protect the comfort of adults? “Oh god I can’t see a baby eating! How inappropriate!” Really? I just feel a baby’s comfort comes before an adult’s. We are rational creatures. This should be a non-argument.

Well that sure came off as unnecessarily judgmental. So moms shouldn’t do any shopping where the kid might need to feed because it’s not really an emergency? I get that you say you’re pro breastfeeding, but from what you’re saying that doesn’t really seem so apparent. The kid might not starve, but the screaming would…

The question is why SHOULD they wait? To make YOU comfortable? Yeah my baby’s hunger actually is more important then your squeamishness.

the option they were giving was the toilet. so it’s wait ten minutes to get to the toilet, or wait ten minutes to get to another public spot. everyone should refuse to feed their children in a toilet.

Kids are not predictable about things like that. You have to shop. Sometimes by yourself. And you have to do what you gotta do. I get this to some degree since I’m of the opinion that my child will be on solids and cow’s milk by 18 months but I’m an awful formula feeding mommy. A lot of evangelical breastfeeders want…

This. My baby is still quite small. Some days she can go a few hours between feedings, other days she wants to eat every 45 minutes. I have no way of knowing until she’s ready to eat again. So I literally could never leave my house for more than 15 minutes if I was trying to schedule my life around her eating.

Babies haven’t mastered waiting. That is why they cry with increasing volume. And a crying baby is not only annoying for everyone to listen to, including the mom, but crying babies make breast milk flow so you will have a mom with a screaming baby and wet shirt! She should and legally can breatfeed wherever she wants.…

That is all.

What a snooty comment! Do you really think you can draw conclusions about the experiences of women in the North and South based on one photo? I’ve lived in the South, the Northeast, and now on the West coast, and pockets of each have different levels of rattiness and swankiness. Now the political climate, which this…

I think it’s funny how people who don’t need medication to function normally are so eager to demonize it (not necessarily calling out Ellie here). Yes, the pharmaceutical industry is problematic as HELL but that’s more a result of combining capitalism with medicine than it is something inherent to the concept of…

Pretty sure that’s not what Whiskeyprayer said.
