Questions & AnswersHi, this is Alicia with Expert Village talking about breast feeing etiquette. Now that we've gone through all of the clothes options and things that you can wear that will really help you feel more confident and cover up when breast feeding. We're going to talk about some situations or places you might be that you need to find a quiet place that you can go. For example, if you are ever at a friends house or a family gathering, a lot of people will feel uncomfortable if you just breast feed in the way. So ask for like, maybe a quiet bedroom or a bathroom or a nursery that you could just get a way to for a few minutes to feed your child. Now I think that the most important thing is to keep in mind that people are probably not even going to notice that you are breastfeeding as long as your baby isn't screaming and crying, that's what's going to draw the most attention. So make sure that you keep a very very close eye on cues. When the baby's telling you they are hungry or a little bit before they are telling you they are hungry that's a full blown cry.
