OK another post that shows I'm 1) from a small town 2) old.
The Soroptimists (I think) used to have a "ladies lounge" in our downtown. Mom33 & I used it for the restrooms, but I'm guessing they had a breast-feeding area as well. Needless to say, it's long gone.
We really do need to have nice, enclosed lounges (not sitting on the toilet - do you eat on the toilet? I didn't think so, why should your baby?) for breastfeeding mothers and for mothers in general to take their kids to change diapers, eat etc. I don't really care for seeing little Cody's winky in my face in the diaper changing area of the ladies room, while we're on this whole discussion (especially since sometimes little Cody is old enough to yell "hi!" as I walk by).
I know parents are used to all this stuff and don't think twice about it - but not everyone is. Not everyone is in love with your child like you are. And there are some people (i.e. women who are trying to conceive and can't, women who've just miscarried) who really don't want to see all that at the present moment.
I'm not advocating keeping the kids home till they're 18, just that other peoples' feelings need to be considered as well.
