Breastfeeding pics - Curious

OspreyVista

I happened to realize on of my friends on FB became friends with one of my ex-friends. I saw that my ex- friend posted pics of her breastfeeding her baby on FB.

Personally I think this should be kept between the mom and her baby, and not her mom, baby, and facebook.

But I wanted to know others opinions of it..

Shoot away!

Lots of people put up photos of their babies eating. Not seeing the issue.

I'm not saying it's an ISSUE. I'm asking for opinions on it because I'm curious.

And I gave my opinion. It's a photo of a baby eating. No big deal.

I think Breastfeeding is a beautiful thing. And that mothers should be no more ashamed of it than bottle feeding. And I know that I posted pictures of my kids eating, they were bottle babies.

I think if it was an issue there would be a lot of mommies registering on the sex offender list. Hopefully people don't make it an issue. That would really suck.

I don't like seeing it when I'm having dinner at a restaurant.

Yes I can look away, but it's the crash scene effect where you sometimes can't help, but look.

I think it should be kept between her and the child, but it's not my call to make as I'm 99% sure it's legal thing to do anywhere.

As for the facebook picture, yeah I don't know why she would post that and think her friends would want to see it... ?

Meh, I don't really like reading about my friend's drama with her ex-husband, but it's her Facebook page to post what she likes.

Reading something, and seeing something is different though and i think it should be treated that way.

Ok, I don't really like seeing people's nasty feet in their vacation photos. Or seeing someone with a beer in one hand making out at a club. Again, it's their page, not mine.

This wouldn't bother me. I don't understand it when people are freaked out by seeing breastfeeding.

I have no issues with a woman feeding her baby. I kick myself that I EVER nursed my son in a bathroom stall because I didn't want some moron to make a comment.

Providing said people don't have a problem with other similarly naked breasts appearing in similar positions, I have no problem with it.
If they do, I reserve the right to shout 'hypocrite' and 'get real' .

Alot of breastfeeding Mothers will post pix of them breastfeeding their child on FB because in mass sometimes, there types of photos get flagged at nudity and get removed by the FB admins.

But, pix of almost naked people are allowed to be up.

So, they post for awareness sometimes. There are even whole groups dedicated to it and they stage dates where they all post them over a short amount of time.

Breastfeeding is the best thing that a mom can do... about pics on fb... its their choice... but if my baby is hungry in a public place i will feed him.... (or let him dieeeeeeeeeeee) ....maybe some womans need to learn how to be able to do this discreetly covered.... you dont need to take off your clothes to feed your child!!!

Who in the world is unaware of breastfeeding?

Men can go topless. Women should be able to as well as far as I'm concerned. As far as breastfeeding goes, if I ever catch anyone complaining about it, I will choke the life out of them without hesitation or guilt.

While I never fed my son out in the open, that's just me being modest, but I have no issues with others who do it. Your feeding your child the way they were meant to be fed. That's the reason we woman have breast. Don't like it don't look. After breastfeeding my son I regretted not breastfeeding my daughter. It was an awesome experiance. I also don't have a problem with you bottle feeding your child out in public.

I understand but you would be amazed at some of the stories you will read from those FB pages of Mothers who were asked to LEAVE stores just because they were breastfeed.

As well as scores an scores of women who have their pictures blocked and deleted by FB when total smut is allowed.

That's where the awareness comes in.

That's great. None of that involves a girl showing her tits while a kids sucking on it. Yes it's natural, yes it's their right, but some things should be kept private especially when you're posting it on Facebook where everyone can see.

Anyways our opinions obviously don't agree so let's move on.

My wife is breast feeding, and if we're out she will use a
small blanket to cover up, or go out and sit in the Jeep.
What ever she feels comfortable doing at the time.

For myself, I would post a pic of my daughters nursing if it was taken from someone else's viewpoint. After all, all you would really see is me cuddling my daughter. The look of love and trust on my daughters face is not something I would share with the rest of the world.

Thank you!
Its about rights.

This is completely fine to me. Blanket, towel, what ever.

I personally think it's a great thing!

I think it is crazy how FB takes down pictures of people breastfeeding.

As long as its really a baby and not yet able to ask for it with words, it doesn't bother me.
