Well said Jan.  I like to discuss discreet nursing (I will now change my
terminology)in my classes because many of them come to class thinking they
will never nurse in public and want to pump and bottle feed. (I don't
understand it either). Some may change their mind once their baby is in
their arms and others are coming to our support group, bottle feeding with
milk they have pumped. Showing them pictures, clothes and slings, may get
them out in the world nursing, less pumping, and in many cases,
breastfeeding longer.
