Today we went to Meadowhall shopping centre near Sheffield and had a lovely day. Fed DS in the large Oasis eating area, and then later he was getting v. hungry and DH was busy in the Orange shop, so I parked us on a bench in the middle of the walkway and fed him there!
I've never dared do that in our hometown shopping centre before, despite feeding him in most other places, but I may do now rather than paying out for Starbucks every time he needs feeding!

bravo! youve done a service to woman and child-kind . in fact, all of humanity(not to mention ds of course!). pat yourself on the back, immediately

Fantastic

If anyone comments ( usually men) just ask them if they would complain if you had your tits out on the beach

You go girl!

Well done, amazing how few people notice isn't it!

I had a rather pleased smile afterwards. Some people did notice, as far as I could tell, but there didn't seem to be much reaction.

Well done!!
Every time we breastfeed in public, it probably gives courage and resolve to at least one other woman so two birds with one stone and all that.

Well done. I go one step further and take DD with me to shout 'BOOB, BOOB' and pointing when she sees me feeding DS out in public!
