When I Googled "breastfeeding prisoner," I found a link to a painting of a woman breasfeeding her father in prison.

I also found a number of websites by mothers who felt like prisoners because they were breastfeeding.
I also found The Prison Birth Project: http://birth-media.com/the-prison-birth-project/ Did you know that 4% of women in prison are pregnant? Man, I'd hate to give birth in prison. Which reminds me that my mother, a teacher, told me that schools, hospitals, and prisons are all run the same way.
That was a good question!
