Yay or nay?

I personally have no problem with others doing it but myself would always find a nice quiet place to go.

If a baby has to eat, the baby's gotta eat. It doesn't bother me in the least.

I don't have a problem with it being done in public as long as it's done discreetly. When I nursed my kids, I didn't like to do it in public but when I did, I always did so discreetly.

I don't have a problem with it.. I will NOT stay home to please other people.. But I will be covered up most defintely...

I'm actually more comfortable breastfeeding in public than at home when we have visitors. Guess that's along the same lines of me being fine with wearing a bathing suit at the beach around strangers, but I wouldn't be caught dead wearing a bathing suit around friends/family!
I always cover up--no free shows

I really couldn't care less, discreet or not. I have boobs, I see them everyday in the mirror. Someone else's aren't any of my business, and if they are using them as nature intended - baby food - then they can feed when and where they wish, however they wish. I'm not going to stare at them, and I won't make an issue. That's my personal take on it, and I think it's sad that our society makes it such a taboo or almost something to be "ashamed of" or something that must be hidden.

That said, I know better than to be flashing the twins around, and when I tried nursing DD, I tried to stay covered unless in the house with just me and DH around. I just think it's sad it's so "taboo".

dd is now a very social eater, likes to pull off and look around, so it is a bit harder, but, so what.... she needs to eat like everyone else

I was quite shy about nursing in public at first, but got over it after a few trips to Disneyland where I was too tired to walk to the baby lounge. I always covered up well.

I'm not sure what constitutes "public". I usually feed the baby in the car, but there have been a few times I've had to us the lounge at the mall, once sitting next to another mom doing the same, and then once at a park, but no one was nearby. I usually try to do it in the car, or at home, but the times I've not, baby's been hysterical and nothing's calmed him down but that.
