Breastfeeding- A household chore!

Breastfeeding develops a beautiful bond between a mother and a child but still it's a hush-hush affair. In India many moms had felt insecure & embarrassed about breastfeeding in public. Share your opinion or story where you had been or witnessed any embarrassment about breastfeeding in public.

I feeded my lil one for 21 months.. I never felt embarrassed...In fact I used to think about my baby instead people around me. that gave me strength to get rid of embarrassment.

never have felt embarrassed to breast feed my baby girl.be it at home or in public.. it's a privilege that mothers only can experience in parenthood.. yes ofcourse I have been always told to breastfeed in some specific ways n not infront of male members of family by my mil but never did I pay heed to those words Just not to let my emotional system n try yo stand with my head High when it comes to things related to my daughter!

Affirmative, the reason is the society, they look at you as you are being intimate in public ... n the men, really don't respect mother's... they should avoid if by chance they see...but , they are such idiots n racist that they ask others (accompanied people) also to look to make mamma ashamed of what she is doing!

yes it's true to feeding baby in front of other.. not in ladies but we shy when mens there.

in start I feel so awkward to feed at public area, so i started to avoid go out for few months. but later on as time passes, I started going out and feed my baby on her demand... being a first time mom, I think this feeling was normal....
