Your signature quote is in my avatar.

Anyway, I agree that covering is a simple way to make breastfeeding in public more acceptable.

The other two things that you said are not always about to be done. Bathrooms have way to many germs floating around for a baby with an undeveloped immune system to be eating in. Not only that, but it would be very uncomfortable for the mom to find a way to sit and feed the baby.

The issue with the bottle is that a lot of women who are breastfeeding don't want to confuse the baby. A bottle could be confusing and then they baby could begin to refuse the breast.


There is always hope. PM me anytime.
