interesting places you have breast fed

[mumsastudent]

BF what kind of interesting places have you breast fed? I breast fed end of Clacton Pier & on a long distance flight to Asia -the air hostess gave my husband a big paper to give me privacy (many moons ago!)

The ladies toilets at the Ritz in London.

On the top deck of an open top bus. Little one was terrified and I had to keep ducking branches without disturbing him.

Nowhere that exciting for me. I've breastfed on a train. Also at my ex boyfriend's house! He was a friend of my DS's dad who I dated when I was 18.

Standing on the terraces of a super league rugby league club

Feeding in a church is the most interesting I get. I generally feed anywhere and everywhere though as long I can be discrete (for my own comfort)

Near the top of Blencathra in the Lake District. DS was 11 months at the time and slept most of the way up in the rucksack carrier but woke at the top and (perhaps understandably as it must have been a cold shock), screamed half the way down! I tried to feed him to calm him down but to no avail so we had to frogmarch down to a more sheltered spot.

On a train, on a bench, in a park on the ground, in primark changing rooms, at work in a communal area, at the beach. Will keep thinking!

In a Sikh temple

Being driven in an open top car around a banked race track. On a rope bridge over the Atlantic. I am lucky to be able to sling feed so if I can walk there, I feed there.

Or, indeed interesting places you’ve bottle fed!

In the room while my husband was having the snip!

Under an umbrella at the beach.

At the top of a slide as DC2 needed a feed & DC1 couldn't quite manage the top step without a hand.
On someone's garden wall whilst DC1 had a tantrum & refused to move.

Open bus tour in Barcelona.

In a stable and also a horse trailer ( while stationary!) .

In a kwik fit. Was congratulated for having the confidence by a fellow (older, male) customer.

In Ikea, sitting on a garden seat in the outdoor section.
School Christmas play.
PTA meeting which was fine until I stood up to say something. I need to learn to shut up occasionally.

Why on earth would you go in the toilets at the Ritz when the rest of the hotel is so nice

The rainforest biome at the Eden Project. I bet not many women can say they walked round breastfeeding in a UK rainforest

Second row back in a church at a wedding. my PFB ds was 8 days old, the first time I had gone out with him and it was for my BIL's wedding, we were directed to sit near the front and I was right on the outer edge next to a wall, when ds cried I would have had to squeeze past so many people and it was right at the vows so would have been disruptive so I subtly (I hope) fed him.

In an old barbers seat in the 3rd floor of a huge reclamation / antique style warehouse.

We were browsing and it looked like a comfy seat. There were 5 in a row, looked like airline seats.

The middle of one of the motorways between South London and Wiltshire.

Traffic was at a standstill though!

On a steam train. In the cab of a fire engine putting out a fire in our garage. Several meetings at my Royal College in London. All sorts really...

Far nicer was the Caribbean beach I fed on.

During an eye test and while getting my haircut.

Fed in church loads of times. I don't think that's unusual. The only reason during the eye test was a bit different was because of the logistics of maintaining a latch while also trying to answer the questions and the haircut because of trying to keep my bits of hair out of his eyes.
