Has anyone seen this latest petition?

support breastfeeding in public .

It's about time that breastfeeding was seen as a perfectly acceptable way to feed a baby and not as something which should be hidden away.

Bumping again. If anyone signs, perhaps they could add a short message, which will keep the thread bumped up for others to see.

I've just signed it. I was quite taken aback when visiting my cousin and her brand new baby the other day - in her own home, she still checked that we wouldn't mind if she fed the baby in the same room as us.

I've signed it and advertised it elsewhere. Having had horrible comments aimed at me when I was feeding in my own home, I certainly want legislation to give me the rights in public...

In your own home? That's appalling.
