They're full of milk-keep staring I will squirt

So here's the thing...breast feeding. Nursing. Whatever you want to call it, one should be proud saying those words. So why is it that when you go out in public and your baby cries people complain? To calm the baby you do the obvious...feed the child...and people complain. REALLY. If you are so offended by what the mother is doing than look the other way. When you're driving do you stop and gawk and a calf eating from it's mothers teet?

Most women cover themselves and make it a descreet feeding, some choose not to. Either way it's not like you haven't seen a boob before. If you are a woman staring in disgust...SHAME ON YOU!! Go stick your head in the sand and don't bother coming out because quite honestly you should not even be called a woman. God gave women boobs to FEED OUR YOUNG!!! Suprising right? I'm sure his real reason was to have them so your husband, boyfriend, partner can feel them up and so that places like Victorias Secret and Fredricks can make pretty little holders for them that make them more appealing than what they are truely used for. I'm as much of a woman as the next, I like to have pretty bras, I like when my husband notices how nice they look and darn it...I want them looking nice myself. But when it comes down to it I am most proud to use them for what they were intended! I am the sole food supply for my children for the first few months of their lives. I love when I can look at them putting on weight as they should and know that I have been the reason that they have thrived. How can your boobs be better than mine because they haven't seen the light of day or fed an infant? You have a problem that I'm doing it in public, you would rather me head to the filthy bathroom in shame to feed my child on the germ ridden toilet fecal matter every plce you touch? How about YOU take YOUR food to the toilet and eat it. Would you look at me in disgust if I let my child play in the garbage cuz that's basically what you are telling all these women to do when you are casting your opinions through your eyes.

I am certianly not saying that if you had children and chose not to breast feed that you were in any way wrong. Some people cannot nurse, some aren't comfortable in doing so, even cases that the baby physically can't nurse...in any instance formula has not killed a baby yet-both my children have had formula. I'm just saying if you did not nurse, haven't had kids yet, whatever the reasoning dont stare in disgust-or men in amazement-we are just doing what god intended them to be used for.

Before you cast those demeaning eyes toward another nursing mom think first of what exactly we are doing, there is nothing sexual about nursing...there is nothing but pure beauty in what that woman is doing. Instead of staring, look the other way and marvel at what a healthy baby it will grow up to be breast or bottle!
