Breastfeeding is the most important part of infancy. Breast milk provides ideal nutrition for infants and also helps in natural growth and development.
There have been lot of controversies about breastfeeding – to do it or not, how to do it, staying away from public. But the one about a mother feeding her baby in public is the worst. Not many societies and cultures accept a baby being fed in public view. I believe every mother has the right to breastfeed her baby whenever and wherever.
Let’s share with you a real incident wherein a woman breastfeeding her baby publicly had to face scorn for her act.
Following the reaction, Ashley Kaidel, a mom of two, took this photo to show that nursing in public is OK and that breastfeeding is a normal thing.
She wrote this post on Facebook to emphasise on her point of view.

Incredibly moving…
Let this be another victory for nursing moms everywhere!
