    What a bunch of BS. I really just don't get how people freak so badly over breastfeeding. They're just tits, and they are just feeding a baby.

    A woman's life is nine parts mess to one part magic, you'll learn that soon enough...and the parts that look like magic turn out to be the messiest of all.

    The comments were entertaining. I NIP with ds, people could be beyond nasty if they realised what I was doing. Fortunately, most didn't. And most of them were older men who were bf'd. So I called out the hippocrites.

    Doesn't this mom know that breasts are for important things like sex appeal, not the udderly impractical act of breastfeeding?

    ISWYDT.

    I find it funny that DH sent me this. He freaks out when I BF at my desk in front of the window that faces the Mormon church parking lot. Like I care if they see a little nip slip as I feed my baby.

    I'm glad; I was really worried that my terrible sense of humor would just be mistaken for terrible spelling.

    I wasn't sure if it was bad spelling or not, but I figured I'd give you the benefit of the doubt ;)

    Amazing. Hollister has no problem with obnoxious, giggling, texting teeny girls sitting in those front seats with their bellies and asscracks showing though. The store needs to issue an apology.

    That makes me so mad. It's stories like this that always made me so self conscious to NIP. Often, I would go to the car and do it in the backseat with a nursing cover even though the back windows were tinted. Ya know, so I wouldn't offend anyone. Annoying. Maybe with the next one I'll be more bold. I hope Hollister grants her a big public apology and some free clothes if she even wants them, I am convinced those clothes don't fit anyone properly.

    This makes me sad... You should never feel afraid to feed nurse. I was nursing when the woman got thrown off a plane for nursing her toddler. In my postpartum righteousness I purposefully went to a coffee shop at the next feeding time so I could NIP. Unfortunately in my region no one cares so I didn't really make much if a point! Just a bunch of old people smiling at my cute baby.

    I can't believe that NIP is still an "issue"!  I didn't NIP because I was uncomfortable and I was totally awkward, like darn near topless, but that is me. If DD would have ever needed to be fed, then I would have NIP but it just didn't come up. 

    People p!ss me off.
