How do you feel about breastfeeding in public? I was last time breasfeeding my daughter at Costa coffee no one had any issues from the staff but 2 old ladies have been giving me the evil eye & talking about my breasfeeding. I know I have the right to breastfeed as long as I'm comfortable.
It made me feel very mad almost had a go at them. My priority is for my child to be fed when she needs.
Anyone else felt that way?

Ignore them and carry on. Breastfeed wherever you are.

I'm tempted to say if you get old women giving you evils and talking about you, whip out the other breast and wave it at them, smiling sweetly.

they are there to eat and drink - so is your daughter. So sorry you got the evil eye. I always found that upsetting, but equally got some smiles every time we were out, which made up for some of the blatant consternation.
