Feeding Places

It’s remarkable to think of all the places I’ve breastfed my children.  I’m not really the type to hide out at home when my kids are little nor do I worry about where I am when they need to feed.  If the boob is available when baby is hungry, they get to eat and when  baby feeds 8-12 times a day, the number of places where feedings occur adds up.

I’ve breastfed on planes, trains, automobiles, buses and boats (though never in a moving car, I would never ever risk taking my child out of their car seat to feed while the car is moving).

I’ve breastfed in 6 different states, 25 different countries and too many cities to count.

I’ve breastfed while shopping, cooking, cleaning and eating.

I’ve breastfed at fine dining establishments, family restaurants, fast food joints, coffee shops, sidewalk cafes and neighborhood pubs.

I’ve breastfed at the mall, the grocery store, the beach, the movies and sporting events.

feedingI’ve breastfed in museums, castles, palaces, forts, zoos, parks, gardens, ancient ruins, amusement parks, breweries, and distilleries.

I’ve breastfed in churches and at the Vatican.

I’ve even breastfed while running a meeting with 60+ pairs of eyes on me.

And this week I added a new one:  I’ve now breastfed while riding an amusement park ride (Buzz Lightyear at Magic Kingdom actually and I still got 18,300 points!)
