[quote=Anonymous]I don’t care at all about this and I don’t think it’s unhygienic. Breast milk isn’t likely to get into the pool, and if it does it’s certainly less than the snot and spit little kids leave in the pool. Chlorine may get in the baby’s mouth from touching the wet nipple, but also from you know, swimming. In addition, my first baby at the 6mo - 1 year age was very insistent about nursing if she saw any part of my breast, such as cleavage that would normally be exposed in many/most swimsuits. It doesn’t sound like what OP saw was a full meal, since she said it was just a few minutes. I can imagine a situation where the mom was being pestered by a baby she knew wasn’t hungry but also wasn’t going to swim until it got a little snack. So she gave the snack then went back to swim, with much less disruption or distraction than leaving the pool. [/quote]
