Successfully breastfed in public!!

Today we had to go register my son’s birth. It’s the first time we have taken him out in the almost 3 weeks we’ve had him. I was quite anxious about needing to feed him in public. I don’t have a lot of accessible clothes so I went with a v-neck summer dress. I fed him in the waiting room of the register’s office and used a cover. I’m so proud of myself. And I didn’t even use a nipple shield because he knocked it off before latching and was already starting to fuss so I just went for it and we were very successful. I know it’s not a huge deal but I don’t have anyone I can really share this with. My husband didn’t see it as a big deal. But it felt huge to me. I’m finally feeling more confident about taking him out. I think tomorrow we are going to venture to the mall! via /r/breastfeeding https://ift.tt/nfZX4wo
