When you look at this photo, what do you see? Apologies for #MySundayPhoto being another breastfeeding image (and again in a pub!) but after the story of a man who took exception to a mum breastfeeding her baby in a pubΒ on Mother’s DayΒ hit the headlines this week I couldn’t resist. This is me onΒ Mothering Sunday – feeding Littlest B in a pub.Β I see the most natural thing in the world:Β aΒ mum nursing her newborn baby – calm, contented and pure. Unfortunately the man at the centre of this story,Β Sheldon Sparks, sees something different:Β somethingΒ ‘inappropriate’ which shouldn’t be done in public. Thankfully the majorityΒ of the great British public sided with the mum on this one, and I was proud to speak up for her and other breastfeeding mums on ITV’s This Morning this week.Β When you look at this photo what do you see?
I fed mine anywhere I needed to, most people were supportive, a few no, but it was my choice not theirs. There is nothing exciting to see so I don’t know why people get in a stew. It’s a beautiful photo.
I see a beautiful picture of a mum with two children, and a baby who is getting a loving look from both mum and big sister. I never understand why people think breastfeeding is “offensive” and “inappropriate” – it’s the most natural thing in the world! I fed mine wherever they needed feeding and thankfully never had any negative comments about it.
I saw you on Television, I think you did really well. Holly was on your side anyway π There is nothing wrong with feeding your baby whenever or wherever. It was something I did with all of mine. You can be discreet, and no-one needs be offended.
It’s natural, your boobs were made for babies.

This is a natural thing and find it strange people still get offended
Thank you for linking up
I see love and devotion and something that is natural, human nature.
Mwn like him are neanderthals. There is fsr more boobage on display in the average advert on telly or posters than can be seen when breastfeeding.
That is a beautiful picture of you and your little ones x #mysundayphoto
I see a beautiful shot of a mum doing an amazing job #mysundayphoto
Aww when I look at this i see your tiny gorgeous baby feeding and feeling a stab of nostalgia of when I did this with mine. Your baby is so so small and new. Bless. Why anyone would take offence is beyond me. It’s not like there’s a boob hanging out or anything! x
No need to apologise….I think this is a wonderful photo! It is the most natural thing in the world x
I see a little girl looking lovingly at her sibling. A mother looking down at her baby. Everything else is irrelevant. Bottle or breast, fed is best xxx #MySundayPhoto
I see a happy mum and a happy baby xxx
