Does the thought

quiz and find out how difficult breastfeeding in public might be for
you.
1. When you see moms nursing their babies in public, you:
Blush and turn away--some people are crazy!
Can't help but stare--that takes some bravery!
Are unfazed--it's not like you can see anything anyway
2. When you picture yourself out shopping with your new baby, you
see yourself wearing:
Classy if casual clothes, like cashmere twin sets or little sundresses
Who cares?
Button-down shirts, shirts with nursing panels, or whatever will make
breastfeeding easiest
3. You can say the words "I'm going to breastfeed"
Only to your doctor, and in a whisper
To your close friends and family, but it's not the kind of thing you
want to discuss with coworkers
To whoever asks
4. If you catch
a stranger staring at you in the mall, you:
Feel instantly self-conscious and duck for cover
Wonder if it's someone who knows you--or maybe you have food on your
face...
Stare back--what's up with some people?
5. You've never breastfed, but can see yourself doing it:
At home
In the comfort and relative anonymity of your car, a restroom, or
a well-hidden restaurant booth
Anywhere, from restaurants to a mall to a sporting event
6. If a relative came to visit you'd likely:
Breastfeed in another room
Breastfeed in the same room as them, but you'd give a warning and
cover yourself
Feed your baby without fanfare
7. If a stranger
caught sight of your nipple, you'd:
Die right there
Write it off as cheap thrills--or a small embarrassment--to that poor
person
Not even blink. It's a nipple, for heaven's sake! Get over it!
