OK, I know in the grand scheme of things this may be the least of my worries once the little one arrives but right now it's playing heavily on my mind and making me reconsider my decision to BF.
I'm really concerned about BF infront of visitors - it makes me feel really uncomfortable when friends have fed in front of me and my husband when we've went to visit (admittedly probably only for the first 2 mins) but I don't think I could feed in front of visitors and considering how long and how often new borns are expected to feed for I don't think disappearing up stairs for every feed is ver feasible with a stream of family / friends that I will want to see and want to see my baby.
Has anyone discovered a good method to combat these issues because although I want my baby to have the very best start I feel this could be enough to put me off especially if other difficulties present themselves (which I'm sure there will be)
Apologies for the long post and I do appreciate I sound a bit pathetic . . .
