I jest read Chris Mulford's response to that anti public BF column. The
thing she said that jumped out at me was the comment about how it used
to be rare to see a pregnant woman in public. I must remember this. My
local paper (the Daily Camera) recently published an article about
public BF and I was terribly disappointed in it. Much too much "be
considerate of others" for my liking. I just want to shout "It's a baby
eating, get over it!"
I have found a way to get people to stop and think when I discuss the
whole formula issue. The analogy I use is medication. I say I think of
formula like medication, you would never withhold it if it was needed,
but you would never dream of using it if it wasn't needed. I've seen
lots of light bulbs go on when I say that.
I will definitely use the "pregnant woman used to not appear in public"
analogy when public BF comes up.
Thanks Chris. And that was a very well worded letter.
