There will be a national nurse-in at Targets on Wednesday, December 28th to protest their treatment of nursing moms in their stores.  There will be a local nurse-in at the Mechanicsburg Target.  

 Even if you aren't nursing right now or haven't but still support a nursing mother's right to feed her baby anywhere come out with us!

    I shop there all the time too!  Target takes waaay too much of my money.  

     

    A mom in Texas was treated badly about nursing her baby in the store.  Here's the full story:

     https://www.sheknows.com/parenting/articles/850073/target-facing-nurse-in-after-alleged-harassment-of-breastfeeding-customer

    There was a national nurse in today and several of us went to the Mechanicsburg Target.  Myself and the other moms there have never had any issues personally there but we participated as part of the national nurse in because of the way Target's corporate reacted.  

    It was a very quiet fun meet up actually.  There were seven mamas, eight babies (one mom had twins she was EBF!) and one supportive grandma ( my mom).  We nursed our babies in the cafe and had starbucks while chatting.  It was great!  

     Myself and one of the other moms will be on CBS 21 news tonight at 11.  We were interviewed and I will be all over Tv's in the region nursing my sweet little girl. =]
