My mum celebrated her 90th birthday recently and we had a family party. I made an album of photographs going back over the years which was a great hit with all of the family.
My daughter was there with her three wonderful children, who are the light of our lives and was feeding the youngest, my beautiful grand-daughter.
At the end of the party one of my cousins said to my DD and I, tht he was really moved as he had been in the company of my mum as she fed me, with me as I fed my daughter and now here was DD feeding DGD. We were all really moved and I was so proud that this is a tradition in our family.
My daughter has qualified as a peer-counsellor for breast-feeding and yet is never called in to support other mothers as the HV who organized it has moved on. I was really sad to read the comments on the other thread.
I'm afraid I was a shameless breast feeder in my time and fed my two everywhere we went, though I'm sure I flashed less of my boobs then than when I was out and about in my nightclubbing days! []blush
I just wanted to point out that there are BF supporters out there in the cafes and restaurants of the world; should we come up and say well done to counteract the miserable sods who complain?
