I was sitting on a park bench in St Kilda feeding DS2 (about 16 months old). An elderly lady stopped to chat. She chatted for AGES! Turned out she was waiting for someone and they hadn't shown up. DS1 finished, mucked about, then went in for side 2. Then he finished that too. About 20 mins later she walked away, just as DH walked back with lunch. He was as surprised as i was that she never once mentioned the fact that I was breastfeeding while we were talking.

She didn't care. I thought that was the best way of showing it was normal. We didn't even need to discuss the obvious. Have child/will breastfeed.

I'm pleased she was nice to you MM. Probably still loves talking about her babies - even though they are all grown up now. That's what we will be like!
