I think you need to feed your baby when they are hungry, so when it happens in public you need to do it. Not Ok with the ideas of going into a nasty bathroom or anything like that just to get out of the public eye! That said, I do think you need to make sure you are covered up (nothing showing that a bathing suit wouldnt show) but should do what you need to do!

I think breastfeeding in public is just fine that's why lots of places have laws that defend a breastfeeding mommy if a situation should occur. I do breastfeed in public but I use a cover..lol my breast are to big to go without

I feed my Sophie in public without a blanket. I find people pay less attention than if I try to cover it up! If I think it'll be obvious, I wear a tank top under a button-up shirt. Pull the tank up and it's very concealing!

I am all for it ... that being said I choose to not subject everyone to it. I have a blanket and a nursing cover-up. My son needs to eat just like everyone else on this planet and it what my breasts were made for!
