Length of time is where our disagreements came...if the kid can walk around

and ask for it, I think it is time to go find a hamburger.

However, my wife was fine up to 3 years old.

One big benefit is that it is natural childbirth. Breastfeed 18-24 months, stop for a few months before getting pregnant and all of our kids ended up being about 2 1/2 to 3 years apart.

Seen it in Sacrament meeting. Completely inappropriate.

why? feeding an infant?

5/21/15 9:29am

That's why they have a mothers room. With speakers.

blueaussie

5/21/15 9:37am

For the convenience/comfort of the mothers.

sheriffcreg

5/21/15 9:45am

Yes and everyone else.

blueaussie

5/21/15 9:56am

why would it make you uncomfortable

5/21/15 10:03am

i wouldn't say I am uncomfortable. Just think it's inappropriate.

blueaussie

5/21/15 10:23am

Wow. Pretty crappy opinions you have on this topic!

Thanks for your insight.

a baby drinking milk from a breast. Why anyone would care is beyond me.

Hmmmmmm......TNT isn't sure how he feels about this

TNT

Go for it. I think covering up or going somewhere private is polite, but

Shimmy

Bingo.

Some babies hate the cover up. We have one or two who hated it and would

Women should be able to breastfeed whenever/wherever they want.

sheriffcreg

5/21/15 8:32am

You mean society, not us on CB

Heinz57

5/21/15 8:33am

Now society demands breastfeeding?

Big Daddy D

5/21/15 8:34am

there is quite a bit of formula-shaming out there. Some hospitals are pretty bad

supertux

5/21/15 8:38am

Very much so, unfortunately. There's a tremendous amount of pressure placed

Tim

5/21/15 8:43am

all I know is my kids were all sleeping through the night by 4 weeks on formula

supertux

5/21/15 8:48am

Interesting. We adopted all four of our kids so never experienced that.

Big Daddy D

5/21/15 8:58am

I actually think the pressure to breastfeed is a good thing, but sometimes...

sheriffcreg

5/21/15 9:10am

I think when parents have already been shamed about it in the past

KingDave

5/21/15 9:15am

Maybe I ought to rephrase "pressure" with "educate"

sheriffcreg

Completely disagree

My wife got a lot of that in Utah. In Oregon no one said a thing.

Most of you (including me) are NOT women!! I told my wife that this was on CB

this comment is way more creepy then 99.8% of breastfeeding

jrob30

But that 0.2% of breastfeeding really gives me the willies. Downright scary.
