Called a pervert...

Just need to vent and get a bit of support as really upset.

Was talking to a new mum at mother and toddler. I have a newborn (and toddler) and she has a six month old. I began feeding, (was discreet but no cover if it matters) and she said breastfeeding makes her cringe and is a bit disgusting and don't I feel like a pervert for putting my boob in a baby boys mouth?

I got up and walked away without a word, and informed organiser.

I know she is ignorant etc, but it has just shaken me up a bit and left me feeling so sad. I was too shocked and upset to speak to her, and felt vulnerable as was feeding at the time.

Why are people so rude and nasty? I don't get why other mums deliberately upset and judge each other just because they do something different to them. It's so sad :-(

People are so odd! Good on you for being so adult in your response. Even if she does have sensory issues it's not fair for her to reflect them onto you.
