Name: cutie_prabha



I am a mother of a one year old baby, whom i have been nursing successfully at home or public. But i am really embarassed when people particularly men of different ages stare at me when i breastfeed in public. Is it something new for them?

hi, i am a mother of 2 yr old baby. i bf him even in public but i see to that its covered. no one can stop you from bf ur baby anytime any part of this world. so bf ur child without worry. enjoy the special bonding which is developed only by breastfeeding.. take care of your baby.

hi, its very common for people esp man whithout families to stare. some are sycos,,,,ignore them.
next time any one stares,ask them, feeling comfortable & obedient and direct in eyes and on face ---- is everything okay !! or hello, are you looking for someone !! tell a bit louder that atleast 2-3 people who are not with the same man and are around hear that...
they will at once stop looking at you and move away or prob will not reply :))..they will feel bad that they looked at you ! happend to me many times,,it really is shameful for men that they stare at a mother like that !
i rem, once in mall when i was bf, when i said the same words, the boy said sorry madam....he had to say because i asked him louder whther why was he staring at me ! i was badly angry at it,,he was staring at me, ever since i started bf..sick people.

later,i found a nursing covers,that are available in market,ne baby store or sometimes walmart,it fits from neck to until the whole baby is covered..they are awesome piece of work..they have a net from neck line to the chest line, very thin but good enough for you to c whther your baby is done feeding, and then it also helps baby to breathe,,by letting enough air ciculation,,try them..
when you wear them, people know that its closed piece and that they wont be able to c nething,,hhehe,,they wont look at you.,,

never feel shy or embarrassed feeding your baby in public.you are giving your baby something that is not only Irreplaceable but also something that has 400 plus nutrients than formula or any other form of milk.so be proud of it..

take care and njoy motherhood.

RE:Adult breast feeding
I was not breastfeed in my childhood hence the idea of sucking and feeding from a woman's full, engorged breasts has infatuated me. It is a fantasy that drives me wild like nothing else, just the thought of laying my head in a woman's lap while she brings her swollen nipples to my mouth. Ideally, I'd like to finally explore this with the right female. If you are in or near... - Sanjayhyd [View Message]
