We don’t understand how anyone could have a problem with a mum feeding her baby. But there are still some people who give strange looks and make comments. The main thing is to not let anyone stop you doing what’s best for you and your baby.
Be strong
- There’s lots of ways you can deal with these people. The important thing is not to get stressed about it – it’s not good for you or your baby.
- Ignore them completely – they’re not worth it.
- Tell the manager that you are being harassed.
- Make a joke about the situation.
- Calmly explain that it’s the best thing for your baby and completely natural.
Be confident
- The more you do it, the more comfortable you will feel.
- It might be a big deal for you, but most people don’t even notice.
- Remember why you’re doing it – for your baby! The most important thing in your life. Who cares what other people think?
Be proud
- Breastfeeding is an amazing achievement – be proud of it!

I have honestly never had anyone give me a bad look or comment. If anything you may tend to get older women congratulating you for your efforts. Most of the time i really dont think people realise what you are doing anyway. Also remember that its your Right to feed your baby and nobody can tell you not to do it.
