Inspired by another MNer asking for support for public feeding, I thought it might be nice to share experiences of people being surprisingly lovely and helpful when BFing, because it's intimidating to start off.
I have loads!
I was in a restaurant, quite early on, and obviously DD wanted a feed the moment the food arrived. The waiter spotted us, took my plate and popped it under the heater to keep warm. Then without my having to ask, noticed when we'd finished and brought it back.
On a flight, I thought the best way to keep her happy would be feeding. The steward brought me water because I would be thirsty, then when doing the usual drinks/snacks run, gave me an extra biscuit, saying it was for DD, but I'd have to eat it first 
Another flight, at the end a woman said to me 'that's such a good idea, feeding her during takeoff and landing, it'll stop her wee ears hurting'
There are loads more, little positive comments, encouraging smiles etc, waiters/waitresses serving me at a table rather than me going to the counter, and I've never had a single negative comment. Yay the public!
What about yours?
