Is there anywhere you feel it is completely inappropriate to nurse in public?

Isn't it awesome?!?!
I recognize that others will disagree with my belief. I don't believe that the fact that they disagree to be a reflection of emotional problems on their part. I would hope that they could afford me the same courtesy and recognize that the fact I hold this belief is not because I have emotional problems.

Right now I'm going for a pc of cake and milk for myself :o)
ITA. I have always felt it was a really important part of my dd's development. I really feel that nursing during the toddler years has impacted our bonding a lot. Of course, I don't know for sure, since I would have to compare our lives bf'ing and then compare it not bf'ing, which would be impossible. But it seems to have increased the bond between us. I have no idea how often non-nursing toddlers sit still for hugs and cuddling. I know that they do. I just don't know if my dd and I do it more often, since she is still nursing. It seems that we cuddle more because she is still nursing.
Although, not all nursing is hunky dory. Sometimes I'm just ready for her to quit and go play, LOL! And then other times it's really great.

ITA. I'm getting the impression that bf'ing is seen as the same as sex, decent in private but indecent in public. Of course, the fact that the baby is eating and not having sex seems to make no difference.

ITA! You said it so well! This is why I am conflicted at times on the whole bonding subject.

I would agree with your dh. Clean milk straight from the cow would be more nutritious.
