They don't starve but they scream for 30 minutes then. If babies are left hungry, they could eat really fast and get a gassy stomach. It's not good to let a baby wait so long to eat if there is no...

Re: breast feeding in public

A baby cannot be selfish. Babies cannot be told "wait a few minutes." When a baby is hungry, you feed it.

It's more about all of the germs. They have very sensitive immune systems. It's also difficult to find a good position to sit in in a bathroom to get the baby to latch on.

Re: breast feeding in public

Changing a diaper and masturbating in public are different. A baby needs nourishment and breastmilk is perfectly sanitary to other people, whereas diapers and masturbation are not.

It's not like people are doing it in front of people on purpose. They don't go out and yell "I'm breastfeeding! Who wants to see?" It NEEDS to be done and you never know when or where you'll be.
