to breastfeed in public even though DH is uncomfortable with it and thinks I should find somewhere private?

[Sequine]

DS is 7weeks. He often struggles to latch and slips off repeatedly during a feed, so I dislike feeding under a shawl and find it hard to be discreet, as I need to keep reattaching him. I wear wrap dresses so I can just pull dress and bra down at one side. I don't really care if anyone sees my breast and don't feel the need to hide away in a corner or find a baby changing room for privacy. I've BF in the middle of Costa, in restaurants, in clothes shops and in a furniture shop, also in GP waiting room and in the back of a taxi as DS was crying and hungry. However, DH thinks BF should be a private thing and thinks I should either feed under a shawl or take a bottle of expressed milk. He said not to be surprised if shop manager asks me to feed elsewhere. My BF support group all say they feed anywhere and are against shawls as they think it makes BF out to be something obscene.
What do others think? Would you be offended by someone BF a small baby without a shawl? Are there places where its inappropriate to BF?

There's an irony about asking women to be discreet whilst using language like; "smashing their tits in my face" and posting a totally identifiable 'indiscreet' BFing photo of oneself on the internet.

Turns out you were absolutely right about the pbp, LilacSpunkMonkey. We won't be seeing at least one of the whingers back on here again - or at least till she pops up in her next incarnation.

To me, this is discreet breastfeeding. She isn't using a cover but her top is covering most of her boob.

That's nice, dear headpat

Putting aside the irony that the woman in the first pic was asked to cover up because she wasn't being "discreet" enough.

Ugh, I'm engaging! slaps self

What about this hussy, she's showing her nipples! Positively flaunting them.

Good you just made me lol.

So you've identified that one woman is wearing more material than another. Funnily enough the person who you believe to be discreet was told she was being the opposite! Hence 'discretion' being subjective

Anyway What's your point?

chipped I do believe that's a result of feminism and the pigs teaching their piglets to be sluts or some other shite

I wonder if the sow should cover herself with a piece if material to avoid making the hog uncomfortable about her blatantly flaunting herself in Costa.

An article in my paper says there is a campaign for more breast feeding in public because many new mothers feel shy about it.

Sadly 34% are embarrassed. I suppose that leaves the good news that 66% are not.
