Adana Ohakim shared this photo of herself breastfeeding her son in a public and complained about the stares she received for whipping out her boob.
She also shared a message to all women, asking what is unnatural in women breastfeeding their babies in a public place. She then urged every nursing mothers to boldly and confidently nurse their child in the public if they need to.
No level of placard carrying will change people’s perception of a woman breastfeeding in the public. Do what feels comfortable to you, but remember that you don’t necessarily have to inconvenience people around you with a breast staring at them! Create a bit of ‘privacy’ as you breastfeed that’s my advice.
Why u dey tell us nah?
Nice one girl. At least I didn’t see her breast in dat pics and d baby is sucking well. If a woman can be descent about breastfeeding in public then I see no big deal in it
You can as well pump some breast milk before leaving the house, that why breast pumps are made.

Nothing wrong with it but I’m not just comfortable doing that. I would rather look for a secluded place and breastfeed my baby
