I am looking at the website about bf in or around public pools, and I
think I like Toronto's approach the best.

I can see how some moms, may be "drugged out" on prolactine (ha ha) and
might be too distracted to properly supervise their other child(ren) in
the pool, and perhaps should get out with the child(ren) for the
feeding...but ONLY in that case.  I don't see how they can say it's a
worry about "bodily fluids" when everyone knows that lots of little kids
piddle in the pools before being toilet trained...human milk is cleaner
than that, I'm sure!  ;-)
