[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]At my old Costco in NC a woman was nursing her baby on the patio furniture display. Someone complained (perhaps they were shopping for furniture??) and she was asked to use their lactation room instead. Outraged that she was asked to move, she took to Facebook and recruited 100 other lactivists to come back and stage a nurse-in in the middle of Costco.

I'm all for breastfeeding, but surely most sane people can understand why a furniture display isn't the most appropriate place for it? [/quote]

I have nursed in the patio furniture display at Costco actually. I'm not a crazy lactivist, but we got caught in horrible traffic on the way to the store and the baby was very thirsty and melting down. I'm discreet though and covered with a blanket. Thankfully, no one said a word to me. It's not that weird to sit on a chair and feed a baby. Most public spaces don't have designated "lactation rooms" and it's no big deal to just find a spot where you won't be in the way and nurse. Just like you'd sit down wherever and give a bottle.[/quote]

Its the fact that you are breastfeeding on items that someone might buy and it is possible that your bodily fluids could end up on the furniture.  [/quote]
