“And yes, I / my wife travelled a great deal with infants. And yes, she nursed (but used a bottle as well. And never once did the nursing in public become an issue. There are always altenatives, if you feel like seeking them out.”
BPT, can you please give an example of what alternatives there are on the plane? Many women will be very grateful to you for this. I’ve spoken to quite a few friends about this–and these are very yeshivish friends I’m talking about, who do not generally nurse in public–and everyone of them said that they stay in their seat to nurse on the plane since there is no other option. Since you seem to feel otherwise, maybe help us all out with this.
