Now someone asked me today what I thought about breastfeeding.
Now although I didn't Breastfeed my children, there is a part of me that wish I had the balls too. I was a young mum and stubborn.
Now I don't mind sittting in a cafe or anywhere public with a mother feeding her newborn child its such a natural and beautiful thing. I feel most mothers tend to cover what they can to avoid the blushing passerby anyway. Besides my parents taught me it is rude to stare!
Now that is my opinion and I respect some people don't share this, however i am a little confused about all the controversy a woman breast feeding her baby in public can make. After all it is only in the last few decades bottles were even invented. Before that Breastfeeding was pretty much how all babies were fed! When bottles first came about they were glass and generally for the rich. So even in our most prudent decades breast feeding was never frowned upon so why in the society we Live in now it can be met with distaste? We moan how our children are becoming obese and not having a healthy diet yet we are fading out the best start to a healthy child just to save a few blushes.
Sometimes we are still a bit backwards despite moving forward in so many ways and yet its our most precious assets that suffer, our children!
