Don't know about anyone else, but when I'm out dining, I generally concentrate on the food I'm eating or the person I'm with.

SDA, what exactly do you object to it?
Is it the breast?
The feeding?

i believe it should be a legal right for women with children to boot a man in the ca-hones if they reject breastfeeding in public such as the 'bucket over water incident' :pp

My sister told her boss to stick his job up his ****ing arse (on 2 seperate occasions, different jobs ) so god knows what she would be capable of if someone has said anything about breastfeeding to her. I have two healthy content nephews and the only reason she stopped was when they developed teeth

Sorry SDA but would you want to eat your food in a stinky, smells of pee and god knows what else kind of place Leave the poor babies and mothers in peace to get on with it and stop ogling like you've never seen a breast before

My sister had to stop after only a few weeks due to some serious pain she was having, I never knew that women have mini-contractions while breast feeding until my sister had her baby. Im sure though if it wasnt for the pain she would have carried on (She was adament anyway but in the end stopped for her own mental benefit as it was starting to cause mental stress).
My sister has done far worse than telling her boss to stick his job etc, though this is a family forum so I cant share the details here
lets just say I have suffered my sisters wrath before and I wouldnt wish it on anybody

If every diner in the restaurant including nursing infants had to go to the bog to eat, then all the eateries would be a small counter at which to order, and all the loos would be huge and full of people slurping and munching in private.

Edit - looks like Debs already said it better

I would love to see any child be fed in 5 minutes, sometimes the babe won't latch on or is really hungry and feeds for ages. If you were bottle feeding a baby SDA would you want to go and sit in the gents toilets and do it

Would you seriously feed your baby in a toilet?
