Akala ko ako lang naguluhan on what seemed to be a contradicting statement. Convey your thoughts well ateng. Ano ba talaga pinaglalaban mo? Agree or disagree? Which one is it?
ginaya niya si kc montero na nag-comment about breastfeeding in public...kaso sablay dahil mas maayos lang ng konti ang sulat niya kesa ke ruffa mae quinto
Parelevant na nmn sya. Sumasakay sa issue ni kc montero. Hello RR! Unang una walang nakakahiya sa pag feed sa public. If dun comfortable ang mag ina na mag feed w/o cover d go. Bkit nakakasakit b sila ng iba? Ang masama ung utak nio na makikitid. Dhil ang tingin nio sa mga nanay na nag fifeed sa public ay malaswa. Ano gusto nio gawin ng nanay hayaan umiyak ang ank nya kung wala nmn feeding station? Dpt kahit saan pwed sila amb feed kung wala nmn nilaan na feeding station sa kanila.
RR, please stop your postings regarding this matter. Ang gulo ng statement mo, dapat tinagalog mo na lang, mas mahusay ka sigurong mag-express ng opinion sa tagalog. Readers are confused with your contradicting statements.
As much as hindi ko maintindihan ang pinupunto nya, medyo conflict yung words na ginamit; eto nalang: are you saying that it is okay for a woman to commercialize her boobs ( topless in a movie, an ad, a commercial or a show) but not to breastfeed in public? And you are suggesting to cover it up because awkward? You are a classic example of a person who sexualize the breast as a body part in a malicious form and seem to forget what it is mainly used for. Kung gaano kalaki ang boobs mo, ganun naman kaliit ang utak mo. No one has the right to stop any breastfeeding mother in feeding her child at any cost and at any place. If you think that there is no issue in breastfeeding in a restroom para hindi awkward, i challenge you to eat in a public restroom and tell us kung okay ba. Its like saying its okay to feed your baby in a restroom because okay lang din sayo kumain sa banyo.
Im a mom at tyinaga ko talaga ibreastfeed yung baby ko for 18 months. it wasn't easy kasi nga kahit nasa restaurant ka kung kailangan mong ibreastfeed ung anak mo, gagawin mo.. pero ako naman, lagi akong may dalang pang-takip, ayoko naman ma-awkward yung iba tsaka ang pangit naman ng pakiramdam na nakubuyangyang yang suso mo in public. respeto ko na din yun sa sarili ko. nanay ako at naawkward ako pag nakakakita ako ng basta na lang nakalabas at kitang kita. walang mali sa pagbibreastfeed in public pero kailangan takpan naman.
Agree with you, you can breastfeed discreetly. Not everyone can be accommodating, and some cultures get offended with exposed breasts.
1:12 Mommy-to-be, hope you can find and get that nursing bib or nursing wrap, coz it's actually very comfy for you and baby. I breastfed both my kids, the younger one till 30 months, and that cover helped so much when we're out.
yes, 1:12 and promise napakaganda ng resulta sa pagbi-breastfeed. walang masama magbreastfeed in public, and hindi naman sobrang effort kung magdala ka ng pangtakip, lampin nga lang keri na. lol.
Pero reality rin po na may mga bata na ayaw na natatakpan sila. I know that for a fact kasi ganun ang dalawang pamangkin ko. I get your point but not two babies are the same and I think when it comes to breastfeeding, in private or in public, the 1st consideration is the baby. And if the baby is more comfortable without a cover then the mother should not be crucified for that. If a person feels uncomfortable with it, look away. Don't take photos of the mom...
same thought. pangit din talaga tingnan nakabuyangyang ang suso mo so if u know na anytime gusto maglatch ni baby always bring pangcover. self respect na din un.
Ako, never ako nagtakip. Bakit? Kasi ayaw ng anak ko, pero sa totoo lang, wala talagang makikita eh, diakarte moves tawag dun.hehe may tube ka sa loob ng kung ano mang sinuot mo tapos itataas mo lang. At pwede ba, kung ayaw makakita ng konting skin, eh di wag tumingin.
I am a breastfeeding mom. I tried to bottle feed my baby but she only wants direct latch and she dont like to cover so what to do but feed her in the way she is comfortable. I admire one breast feeding dad who wrote about breastfeeding in public and he said there, if you are a baby do you want to eat in the dark with cover?
Anon 2:57AM, Moms can pump and store in bottle but there are times that only direct breastfeeding could calm a baby. There are babies who hate covers too. Suffocating for them. Let's not be too quick to judge. Moms don't do it to display their boobs. Believe me, I was forced to feed without cover once as it was the only setting that could pacify my baby at that time.
I agree with 12:58. I am also a breastfeeding mom of a 7 month old baby. Sometimes it is hard to use a cover especially when the baby is irritated or if he is in a very playful mode. He would grab the cover and expose himself. Pls do not judge breastfeeding moms with or without cover. No woman wants to expose their private parts. She might just be in a situation where she had no choice.
Sad that people here stare at breastfeeding moms. Back in canada, no one ever stared at any breastfeeding moms. They even allow moms to breastfeed in fitting rooms (walmart).
Ms. RR, lets wait till you become a mom and see if you would understand the situation better. By the way, it is better that your breast be exposed due to breastfeeding rather than exposed in a magazine for a living. SHAME ON YOU.
Breastfed din baby ko pero i dont really mind other moms breastfeeding in public without cover because there's nothing wrong with that. As for my personal preference may dala ako takip or kung wala man i make sure na di makikita breast ko, kasi di ako komportable na may ibang titingin sa boobs ko. I am just not confident with my body kaya ako ganun. Ok lang din naman si baby kahit may takip. Ang importante i was able to breastfeed my baby.
All of you who commented and replied here must be educated that breastfeeding should be accepted as a norm in our society. It's nothing to be ashamed or embarrassed about. You don't need to cover or hide. Kaya madami ang naawkwardan sa sitwasyon kasi kayo mismo na mga babae na nagmamay-ari ng boobs nyo na pampadede, ikinahihiya nyo. Kayo mismo ang naghahypersexualize ng sitwasyon.
Breastfeeding in public with cover or not as long as you attend to the need of your child is okay. No two babies are alike, my lo don't want any covers so what to do? Fight the bitch fit? People sexualize breast na hindi naman dapat. What's "nakabuyangyang?" Hindi mo naman ilalabas lang ang boobs mo to entertain people eh! You are nurturing hello?! Try to eat under the duvet or a blanket let's see how you feel. If you feel uncomfortable as adult?! Nuff said!
Everyone is entitled to do things their way as long as wala silang sinasagasaan na ibang tao. I breastfed my daughter exclusively for more than a year and when I did so in public, I would use a nursing cover. I guess there are people who feel uncomfortable seeing women's private part in public and that's ok, it's understandable naman.
Cge nga RR try mo ngang kumain sa bathroom nang restaurant. It's the same concept, the child is eating while at the restaurant. Kaya ang hirap isulonh ang karapatan nang mga breastfeeding moms kasi kahit ikaw na babae di mo naiintindihan ang pinaglalaban nila.
te please lang ang point dito is takpan ang breast habang nagpapa-didi ok? hindi naman sinabi na di pwede magpa-didi in public pero sana may takip.. ok na ba? please lang laliman ang pagka intindi.. mommy din ako dati pag pumupunta kami ng mall nagpapa didi ako sa anak ko pero nagtatakip din ako kasi nga nakakahiya para sa akin at para sa ibang tao..
And what can you expect from her? She sees nothing wrong with exposing breasts for a men's magazine to be ogled at and God-knows-what-else by hundreds of men.
Is it me lang ba or malabo ang direction ng essay ni RR? Una kala ko against sya sa breastfeeding in public tapos sa last sentence breasfeeding is ok na in public? Anu daw teh? Deadma na sa grammar and punctuations (or lack thereof) pero labo talaga, RR. Ikaw yata ang kulang ng fresh milk e? Baka makatulong sa brain cells.

What a hypocrite. You show your breast on magazine ads, and other media for sexualization and yet a mother who is just feeding and nourishing her child had no right to expose her breast? Hypocrite level, 1000.
Kung wala kase pang cover sana sa ilalim nalang iopen yung blouse para nipple lang ilabas.ang tyan naman ng nanay ma takpan ng katawan ng bata.ganun gingawa ko.d nmn need ilabas buong dede mo
Naalala ko noon nasakay kami ng jeep ni nanay, ung ale nag papadede sa anak nya. Basta lang nilabas ung dede para sa anak. Ngayon dami na arte. Personally because of this scenario, i never learned how to breastfeed my daughter sa labas ng bahay. Nakaka stress, dadala pa ng balabal e ayaw naman ng anak ko me takip. Times have changed. Dumami na kaartehan
OK try mo I educate the uneducated masses. Honestly kahit educated men also can't help but look at women breast feeding in public may cover man or wala. Even women also looks at them. Sa una and makes a 2nd look pa, men and women yan ha from an upscale mall pa. yung iba nonstop staring talaga so really can't help talaga to get stared at. NASA mom in Lang yan if OK sya to be stared at or not..
Sus ako nagpapabreastfeed ako, nakabuyangyang man ang boobie ko para sa magandang dahilan. Eh ikaw naglantad ka ng katawan para saan?? Hay sus magmalinis ka pa, breastfeeding is natural kung ayaw mo wag ka tumingin and di mo alam kasi wala ka pang anak. Minsan nakakatawa ka pero now nakakasuka ka! Christian ba yan pananaw na ba yan? Hays
Dapat lang naman talaga may cover kung nag papa breastfeed kang may mga tao sa paligid mo. Common sense! Hindi rin kse tama na nakikita ang suso mo ng maraming tao. Unless you breastfeed na ikaw lang tao its ok na walang cover. I have 3 children and lahat sila breastfed at common sense or mahiya ka naman na nakikita ang suso mo ng ibang tao. Gets nyo? Sana wag utak talangka ang mga tao. Isip isip din ng tama. May tamang lugar para sa mga taong nag papa dede.
I understand your point but do not generalize ALL mothers can breastfeed with a cover up kung uncomfortable ang baby nila. Unang una, humid dito sa pilipinas, try mong icover ang mukha mo ng nasa public place ka na mainit ewan ko lang kung di ka pawisan, ganun din ang mga baby. How about this:teach men and the public that breastfeeding is breastfeeding. And breasts should not be seen as a malicious object. Yun lang naman yun. In the end, preference ng nanay at baby yan. Lastly, wag ka din utang lutang.
Anon-1230 Maka common sense ka nman! LOL So if ayaw ng anak nmen may cover, ibigsabihin mga mangmang kme? I think you're delirious! We don't need to sacrifice comfort to please other people. Hindi yan nakabuyangyang, dumedede anak namen. We're not crazy to show our boobs without a purpose. It's just skin! Women wear bikini with the same flesh showing the same as the bfeeding mums!
Pag nasa mall at or kahit saang public place need mag pa breastfeed cover up naman. Nakakadiri makita ang mga laylay nyong suso...... Mahiya hiya naman kayo!!! Juskomio!!! Walang mga knowledge sa tamang pag uugali ng tamang breastfeeding.......
Anon 12:33: edi wag kayong tumingin!!! Ang isang ina, inuuna ang kapakanan ng anak bago sarili niya. Nagpapadede siya para sa sanggol niya, hindi para sa ikagiginhawa ng tao sa paligid niya.
im an advocate of breastfeeding. my lil one is 2 1/2yo na and still breastfeeding,pure since birth. i do breastfead in public places pero may takip, para di expose ang breast. pero ung top lang tlga at ang anak ko hindi natatakpan dahil maiinitan din sya. to those na exposed talaga,i dont want to judge them. Comportable naman sila na exposed so wala na tayo dun. But really may mga lalake na pervert at pag nakakita ng ganun e ewan na lang. pero kahit di pervert,naiilang ang mga guys. Ang husband ko is not letting me exposed my breast.
Try mo muna mganak para alam mo ung sinasabi mo. Like sa panahon ngaun, mainit... tapos cocover mo pa ung anak mo while breastfeeding, magiiyak tlga ung baby dhil d sya comfortable. Konti lng ang breastfeeding station sa public places kaya wlang choice ang nanay. A newborn baby would usually have to be fed every 2 to 3 hours. Cguro bago mo sabhing mali ang pagpapabreastfeed tingnan mo muna kng pano ka manamit, indi porket nakatago ang nipple mo mas desente kna sa mga nanay na ngpapabreastfeed.

uhm, "thinking that breastfeeding in public is gross or nakakahiya" is a perverted idea and it says more about the person judging than the mother breastfeeding in public. yung breasts are for feeding infants talaga nagiging over sexualize lang because of society. napaka immature mag isip ni RR.
I have breast fed my son for 3years anywhere and everywhere here locally and abroad. Airport mall street. restaurant. Hotel lobby airline u name it I must have done it. But I always do it with my breast feeding cover, I am never withput it and don't have the guts to be comfortable with all the stares I'll get if I do it without the cover. I think I was never ever denied to do it since I do it discreetly here and abroad. Coz honestly even I can't help but stare at moms breastfeeding in public without a cover so what more men, and it also makes me uncomfortable, that's why I myself don't want to experience that so I use my cover all the time. It is a fact and it's natural but nowadays it's a matter of being decent. Just my opinion.
Hay nako RR! Tumigil ka na nga kakabigay ng POV mo sa mga bagay bagay para lang may masabi. Lusaw na utak mo dahil sa kaka glutathione mo. Please lang, mgpost ka na lang ng mga selfie mo ha. Wag ka na gumawa ng essay. Sakit sa ulo eh.
Naku, RR, hindi ka siguro nag-breastfeed sa nanay mo, kaya ka ganyan.
Ang pinag-uusapan lang sa "proper breastfeeding" ay latching at walang kinalaman sa pagcover ng breasts. Nalito ako sa sinasabi niyang pag-cover ng "private part" --ang ibig ba niyang sabihin, kailangan naka-panty si mother para mag-breastfeed. Malamang naman siguro no?! Kung ang ibig naman niyang sabihin ay breasts, well, subukan niyang kumain sa tapos may lampin sa ulo niya --o kaya kumot? Di ba nakakairita?
A woman has a right to breastfeed in public dahil ang sanggol na nagugutom hindi namimili ng lugar at panahon. Whether or not she wants to use a cover, it's her choice and her choice alone. Let's #normalizebreastfeeding.
Kaloka ito. Kung naeeskandalo ka, wag kang tumingin.
Then at least find the most private place where you can feed the child without having to display your breasts out in open for the public to stare at. Know your child's feeding habits para alam mo when to feed them.
People go crazy when others show skin (bathing suits, tiny shorts, tiny blouses). Babastusin ka if you show some skin. Anything that shows skin is considered scandalous. Have a little self respect and also respect other people's preference not to see your breasts. Be fair.
No one's forcing people to watch but if you display your breasts for them to look at, what do you expect them to do? Poke their own eyes out? Pretend they didn't see? You are putting the general public in a very awkward position. It is called basic public etiquette. Do not use your child to justify your display of breasts.
I could go on and on about this but at the end of the day, to each his own. I respect your opinion.
WHAT A HYPOCRITE TOO. WHAT IF (WHAT HAPPENS OFTEN) PUNO ANG NURSING ROOM NG MALL, SAAN PA ANG PRIVATE PLACE TO BREASTFEED? SA COMFORT ROOM? IKAW KAYA KUMAIN SA CR?
@2:19: "Then at least find the most private place where you can feed the child without having to display your breasts out in open for the public to stare at. Know your child's feeding habits para alam mo when to feed them." -- I take it you're not a mom, because if you are, then you should know that not all babies are the same. Some are predictable, some are not. We are not perfect, and our babies aren't either. They do not follow a schedule. Even if you think you know when your baby will be hungry, he/she will sometimes surprise you.
Also, I hope you keep that in mind for when you are disturbed by a crying child and his/her mother won't nurse because they are in a public place. I do think a crying child is more annoying that someone breastfeeding and minding their own business.
"People go crazy when others show skin (bathing suits, tiny shorts, tiny blouses). Babastusin ka if you show some skin. Anything that shows skin is considered scandalous. Have a little self respect and also respect other people's preference not to see your breasts. Be fair." -- This is a statement that actually reflects what YOU think, not what OTHERS think. If for you, showing skin is scandalous, then that's YOUR opinion, not OTHER PEOPLE'S. And that's okay, but don't pretend to speak for others.
Also, I think your definition of self-respect is dependent on other people as well. Don't you think that's problematic? Why would you other people's opinion of you shape your view of yourself? And isn't using your breasts for its intended purpose also respecting your body?
People who show skin are not the problem, it's the people who disrespect them. People who are generally disrespectful will always be that way, whether you show skin or not. We deal with them in different ways. Some simply grit their teeth and bear it. Others are more argumentative. We have no right to dictate how others should act. You can only control your own reaction.
"No one's forcing people to watch but if you display your breasts for them to look at, what do you expect them to do? Poke their own eyes out? Pretend they didn't see? You are putting the general public in a very awkward position. It is called basic public etiquette. Do not use your child to justify your display of breasts." -- Do you really think breastfeeding moms display their breasts because they WANT to? Breastfeeding moms do what they NEED to do, and showing a little skin is sometimes necessary to do that. At the end of the day, people will always do something offensive to you. People will spit on the ground, hug and kiss in public, even grope each other in public. Someone always gets offended. What do these offended people do? Do they poke their eyes out? LOOK AWAY. There. End of drama. Did your rights get violated? Were you physically hurt (or sprayed with bodily fluids)? No? Then shut up and just look away. This is the problem with us today. We get offended and we automatically think we are entitled to something. That's not how it should go. We all have rights, and as long as we don't impinge each other's rights, being offended doesn't mean sh*t. It just means you are human and have an opinion.
I do respect your opinion, but I also think it says more about you and your view about women in general. Also, please educate yourself about the rights of breastfeeding women here and in the US (since I'm assuming that this incident happened there, as the lady in the photo mentioned Marshall's). While you're at it, you might want to read up on women's rights in general as well. Maybe you'll change your view, maybe not, but at least you're better educated.
Of all the comments here, I responded to you because I thought your comment best sums up what should be changed about how women should view themselves. Also, it's free of unnecessary insults and looks like it was written by someone who is calm and logical.
Really now 2:19. How about educating the public not to over sexualize the breast as a malicious body part? How about that? And may i remind you that the Philippines is a hot/humid country. Why dont you try to cover your face for a few minutes in a humid place, tignan natin kung hindi ka pagpawisan ng todo. Imagine how uncomfortable it is for a baby. Remember, a mother would not let her baby sweat profusely and be uncomfortable just so people like you has the satisfaction not to feel awkward.
Yes, I am a breastfeeding mom of 3 kids, ages 8, 6 and 3. All exclusive latch on until 20-25 months. My ability to have fed my babies using my body is empowering and I take pride of having conquered engorged breasts, cracked nipples, and tooth bites.
Every woman has every right on what to do with her body. However, we live in an era where we cannot force the society to rectify its view on women. In many cultures, whipping out a boob to feed the baby may or may not be seemed normal. Reality is we cannot just continue gritting our teeth because we are trying to fight for a certain right that the public is not ready to fully grasp. The public is not as accepting as we expect/want it to be.
Don’t get me wrong but I am fully comfortable with my body. I still wear swimsuits, tiny shorts, backless or sexy tops, even with some scars and imperfections showing. But I can only show so much to the public. I do not like my breasts out for the public to see when I feed my baby.
I work around the society's limits. I use a nursing cover when I breastfeed in public, even when I am inside nursing lounges or family rooms. It is my preference not to have my chest area be seen by others, again my preference. That is how I wanna conduct myself in public. However, I still support those who do not cover because I respect and support THEIR choice. Besides, other women can still maintain modesty even without the cover; pulling the boob from the bottom of the shirt, wearing baggy tops enough for cover, or facing the direction that most avoid people's direct stares.
My middle child hated the cover, I had to look for the kind that has a hole where the baby can partially see the outside and not be fully covered in darkness. There are also those kinds that are knitted but still provide good cover. My eldest child got used to the cover early on because I tried to use it at home too as training so she won't feel uncomfortable when we go out or at other people's homes. My youngest has no problem with covers either; if being breastfeed without it, he'd pull my top to cover his face. So yes, I know that no child is the same as the other, the struggle is real people. It depends on how I find a solution that works for both the baby and I. Sometimes I had to sit in the corner of a busy department store, or hurry back to the car, etc. It is a private and quiet moment I share with my baby and I do not want other people to bother us.
I also believe that there are certain things that should be kept within the family or between husband and wife. It is natural for women to breastfeed in public, covered or not. However, please also consider that men have a natural attraction to breasts; we have informed and uninformed men in the society; some women/people also believe that some parts should be kept covered. I am not speaking on behalf of the general public. It is just my take and understanding on people’s behavior. Educating the public to accept our belief might help but please be realistic that people will always have different judgments no matter how confident we are in what we are fighting for. May it be on nursery vs stay-home care, breastfeed or not, cloth or plastic diapers, it can become a crazy discussion.
It is my opinion not to put the public in an akward position around uncovered moms. Do not make my personal preference as an attack to other women. I can fight alongside other women for their right but I make the decisions I wanna make. I do not have to share your preference for me to support you. Others even mommy-shamed those who wanted to cover up. There is really no need for that. We need to make it two-way respect. Support one another ladies.
Ano ba mali sa pag breastfeed sa public? Wala naman siguro di ba? Ang mali eh kung paano bigyan at tignan ang nagpapadede na ina. Problema kasi sa panahon ngayon lahat ginagawang malisyoso. Nung panahon naman na di pa nauuso ang fhm, at kung ano man klase ng magazine na medyo malaswa, eh wala naman nasasabi sa pag breastfeed. Sana isipin nila kung ano ang halaga nito sa sanggol at ang bond na nagagawa nito sa ina.
Hindi lahat ng tao alam ang halaga ng breastfeeding. Pero alam natin na binabastos talaga if we show some skin. So go figure. Should we force the ignorant public to understand or take the initiative to cover?
@2:23 - to each his own. Or in this case, to each her own. If you want to cover, go ahead. If you don't want to cover, go ahead, too. Choice mo 'yan. Just don't persecute others for their choices kung hindi naman naaapakan ang rights mo.
Your rights end when the next person's rights start, vice versa. It is a complicated social conflict. No one is persecuting anyone, this is just a matter of differences in opinions and choices.
Some babies aren't comfortable w/ nursing covers. A mother has the right to feed her baby when needed so. Now, if anyone's finds that scandalous, he/she is free to look the other way. Ugh no one's forcing them to watch!!
korek! i was abojt to comment the same thing. this hypocrite ignorant is saying to cover the private part! please kung siya nga nakabuyangyang private niya for sexual reasons on the internet. ang problen dito is the people who are narrow minded people should nkrmalize bfeeding! with lr withoit cover im a bfeeding mom and i know for a fact that most of the time even if you want to cover yourself with a nursing cover your baby wont allow you to bec the baby feels uncomfortable. kayo kaya kumain sa ilalim ng kjmot! ang dudumi kasi ng mga isip ng iba. pag sa beach or magazines ok lang expose breast? pero to feed ur hungry child bawal? para saan ba ang boobs? wtf!!! #normalizebreastfeeding dont be idiots. you dont know rhe effort and sacrifices breastfeeding mothers go through. ang hassle tapos tatapunan niyo pa ng judgements kaya most moms prefer to bottlefeed their child eh. please lang if you dont want to see it dont look. its normal to feed a hungry baby in public WITH OR WITHOUT a cover.
2:38 and 4:08 di sa beach kayo mag breast feed na nakalabas boobs. Gads, makagawa lang ng issue. RR was a sexystar and she posed in a magazine or movie/tv with r rating and people who want to see can buy or watch. Eh yung public breast feeding walang choice yung tao kundi makita ka. SAGWA and inconsiderate
Honestly my baby sometimes don't want to be covered when nursing in public. BUT I THINK ITS how u discipline and talk to ur child that we need to be covered while nursing in public. Usually kasi the ones who demand not to be covered are those mga 8mons old or above na and the mom can kinda talk to them pa din to be covered I experienced this a no of times and nakakastress talaga. U just need to be firm Lang with them they'll listen eventually kahit ilang times p kayo maghilaan ng cover perk they'll eventually listen. And some babies kc they want to look at their moms while nursing. U can open d top cover of the cloth naman to do it and appease them. Or u can buy a cover na there's a slight opening on d top to adjust the cloth so u can view ur child while ur nursing him keron s Sm P599 Lang I switched to this and OK naman Mas napapacify my child na minsan ayaw patakip since I use this na.
Ay nkakaloka po ang mga celebrities na nagmamarunong about sa tamang pagbreastfeed ah. Bakit di nyo muna icriticize ang mga babaeng tulad ni RR na nagpopost ng nude sa mens mag? Si miley na panay pakita ng front nya? Inaano ba kayo ng moms just doin breastfeeding in public w or w/o cover? Natural mente gutom ang bagets sino ka para sitahin ang DPAT normal activities of a mom and her infant. Kaya big deal ngayon kasi DAMI nagmamarunong at hypocrites tulad ni RR .. #hypocrite level100000000
Sobrang stupid lang ng logic nyo jusko 10:29 9:49. A classic example of oversexualizing the breast. It reflects how your perceive breastfeeding rather than what it is intended for.
walang kwenta mga nursing covers sa akin kasi ayaw ng baby ko pede naman cover sa una para mailabas lang ang breast tapos dapat nakadikit sau baby mo parang ung position ng skin to skin contact ung shirt mo magcocover ng breast pwede mo rin gmitin kamay pantakip. Pagnakatulog na doon pwede mo na lagyan ng manipis na lampin
I breastfed my baby for 18 months. No formula milk. Whenever we go out may dala akong nursing cover. Pero naghahanap ako lagi ng breastfeeding area kasi ayaw ng anak ko na may takip siya. Personal preference ko lang ito because I find nothing wrong in breastfeeding in public kahit walang cover. Eh kung gutom na gutom na ang anak mo at nasa gitna ka ng EDSA at wala kang nursing cover, matitiis mo ba?
Unang una, hindi krimen managalog. Trying hard naman kasi mag English. And secondly, napakababaw mo RR to think na nakakahiya makita ang private part ng babae na yan habang nag bbreastfeed. It's because of people like you who body-shame breastfeeding mommies who are unreasonable. Women's breasts have become so sexualized that people forget that its purpose is for providing nourishment to children to the point that most people feel uncomfortable seeing it in public during breastfeeding. Ok nandun na tayo private part but maiisip mo pa ba yon if gutom na ang anak mo?
Mema lang to si RR. A piece of advice ha, kung d naman masyado gets ng poor comprehension skills mo wag na lang mag commebt. Tutal hirap ka din naman to express yourself. And you're not a mommy so who are you to dictate mommies to cover up? Para lang hindi ma uncomfy mga taong makitid utak like you, RR? Go back to dancing or something where you belong.
RR - Marshall's is a department store, hindi sya tao so don't call it "the marshall" kaloka ka! Napghahalata na di ka pa nakaka punta sa East Coast. By the way, hindi lahat ng baby pwede mong takpan! my son hated the cover I used when I was nursing him, hinihila nya kase gusto nya nakaka hinga sya and he can see me. Nursing isn't just a form of nourishment for your child, it's also a way to comfort them and create a strong bond with your child!!!
I agree with her. COVER UP in public. You can afford to shopobviously based on you and your babies clothes so you can afford those breastfeeding bib/blankets. Bakit ba atat na atat magpakita ng boobs pag nagbreast feed? As for the dressing room. It's a femaleonly dressing room right? So she should have been allowed.
Ateng 10:25, obviously hindi ka nanay o lalake ka o isa kang babae malisyoso. Fyo hindi ata magpakita ng breast ang nanay. And more fyi for your stupidity, the focus of whether a nursing blanket can be used or not depends on the baby. Most babies feel incomfortable with blankets. Mainit, sagabal at mahirap makafeed. Gets mo na? Tanga mo.
Sa dressing room naman pala magbebreast feed e dapat allowed yan kasi walang area allotted for bf. Napaka unsanitary kaya nyan, cla kaya try nila kumain sa cr. RR ang breast di yan ginawa ng Dios para sa lalaki, ginawa yan para sa mga sanggol. Bakit ikakahiya magbf kung yun nman talaga ang purpose nun. Bat di ka mahiya sa ginagawa mong paglantad sa breast mo na wala na mang purpose. Di ka mahiya pinapangalandakan mo pang christian ka.
Na-lost ako sa sinabi niya, huwag kasing magpumilit na maruong kang mag-English. Try Google Translate my dear, at least people can comprehend the translations.
Gulo mo teh! Nag pa breastfeed aq sa anak ko 4 almost 2years. Di mo na maiicip yan kung nasa public place ka at nagwala ang baby mo lalo na kung ikaw lang mag isa. Syempre mas uunahin q patahanin ang anak ko bago ang sarili ko..
to September 16, 2015 at 2:19 AM: "Then at least find the most private place where you can feed the child without having to display your breasts out in open for the public to stare at. Know your child's feeding habits para alam mo when to feed them." -- I take it you're not a mom, because if you are, then you should know that not all babies are the same. Some are predictable, some are not. We are not perfect, and our babies aren't either. They do not follow a schedule. Even if you think you know when your baby will be hungry, he/she will sometimes surprise you.
Also, I hope you keep that in mind for when you are disturbed by a crying child and his/her mother won't nurse because they are in a public place. I do think a crying child is more annoying that someone breastfeeding and minding their own business.
"People go crazy when others show skin (bathing suits, tiny shorts, tiny blouses). Babastusin ka if you show some skin. Anything that shows skin is considered scandalous. Have a little self respect and also respect other people's preference not to see your breasts. Be fair." -- This is a statement that actually reflects what YOU think, not what OTHERS think. If for you, showing skin is scandalous, then that's YOUR opinion, not OTHER PEOPLE'S. And that's okay, but don't pretend to speak for others.
Also, I think your definition of self-respect is dependent on other people as well. Don't you think that's problematic? Why would you other people's opinion of you shape your view of yourself? And isn't using your breasts for its intended purpose also respecting your body?
People who show skin are not the problem, it's the people who disrespect them. People who are generally disrespectful will always be that way, whether you show skin or not. We deal with them in different ways. Some simply grit their teeth and bear it. Others are more argumentative. We have no right to dictate how others should act. You can only control your own reaction.
"No one's forcing people to watch but if you display your breasts for them to look at, what do you expect them to do? Poke their own eyes out? Pretend they didn't see? You are putting the general public in a very awkward position. It is called basic public etiquette. Do not use your child to justify your display of breasts." -- Do you really think breastfeeding moms display their breasts because they WANT to? Breastfeeding moms do what they NEED to do, and showing a little skin is sometimes necessary to do that. At the end of the day, people will always do something offensive to you. People will spit on the ground, hug and kiss in public, even grope each other in public. Someone always gets offended. What do these offended people do? Do they poke their eyes out? LOOK AWAY. There. End of drama. Did your rights get violated? Were you physically hurt (or sprayed with bodily fluids)? No? Then shut up and just look away. This is the problem with us today. We get offended and we automatically think we are entitled to something. That's not how it should go. We all have rights, and as long as we don't impinge each other's rights, being offended doesn't mean sh*t. It just means you are human and have an opinion.
I do respect your opinion, but I also think it says more about you and your view about women in general. Also, please educate yourself about the rights of breastfeeding women here and in the US (since I'm assuming that this incident happened there, as the lady in the photo mentioned Marshall's). While you're at it, you might want to read up on women's rights in general as well. Maybe you'll change your view, maybe not, but at least you're better educated.
Of all the comments here, I responded to you because I thought your comment best sums up what should be changed about how women should view themselves. Also, it's free of unnecessary insults and looks like it was written by someone who is calm and logical.
Breastfeeding mom din ako sa 2 kids ko nung 0-3 years old sila. Minsan demanding talaga ang mga jugets, wala silang pinipiling lugar. Kaya dapat handa ka. May mga tao kasi na either nababastusan sa nakikita nila or they simply want you to be respected by people na mejo makitid ang utak. Dapat lang maginvest sa breastfeeding clothing/ bra na nipple mo lang ang lalabas hindi ung buong boobies mo. At kung mejo di kaya ng wallet, bili ka ng lampin at itakip mo over your shoulders and your kid, malipis lang yon.. makakahinga si bebe. sa panahon ngayon, mas tanggap ng society ang dede sa magazine kesa sa dede na nagbibigay nourishment sa bata.
Scenario just in case NASA middle east country ka do u have d courage to breast feed without cover in public? Tingnan k Lang Kung di ka makulong. Ilugar din natinsarili natin . U can breast feed anywhere as long as magcover na Lang. Mas masasanay din anak mo Kung ever since sanay sya since malitt na covered pay feeding sya outside .
Te sa middle east lahat ng mall ay may bf rooms. Naku wag kang kumuda kung di ka pa nakakarating dto. Di nman need mag bf in public if may allotted rooms no.
There are nursing covers that u can adjust the top so u can see ur baby while nursing and he is still covered pa din and it has a little space so that cloth is not touching his face and he can breathe but he is still fully covered. SM. rustans or online stores have this 599 OR BELOW OR SOME 800 .if u only have do regular nursing cloth u can actually hold d cloth n give ur baby a little space so he can breathe while nursing him. NASA diskarte yan pag ayaw mo talaga mag nurse without cover. baby ko nagaaway kami while he's nursing pero napapacify ko din by constantly talking n medyo paypayan mo d cover while nursing so para may hangin sya coz ayaw no talaga magnurse without cover.
Lampin lang pwede na gawing cover. At rr wala ka pa kasing anak, kaya di mo alam pinagdadaanan ng mga nanay. Iwas iwas sa english mo kasi imbes na magkakaintindihan tayo ginulo mo lalo hehehe...
atcheng nakakahilo ang post mo, magtagalog ka nalang. may nalalaman ka pang proper way. so kung starlet katulad mo ang magpost sa magazine without cover ng private part oks lang? pero pag nanay na nagpapadede in public hindi pede, hindi ok? maraming bata ang ayaw ng nursing cover at may mga bata na sobrang nagdedemand na ng gatas, agad agad kelangan magpadede. pede ba, tumahimik ka na lang rr at mag aral ka ng english!

dami nyo problema ke rr hhahaaa may point naman sya and stick to that dont go beyond d parameters kung ayaw nyo e d magpasusp kau sa public ng walang takip or go for the other side opinion
"wag magsalita ,sa isang bagay kung dmo pa nmn nararanasan" madaling magbigay ng opinion sa mga bagay bagay na nakikita ng ating mata. ayaw mong makakita ng nanay na nag papabreastfeed at kw pa ung nahihiya, for sure ung mga nanay ayw din nila na ipapakita nila ung maselang bahagi ng katawan nila para sa "PERA". at note dba sa cr nmn sya nagpadede so meaning kpwa babae lng ung nakakakita, at kung lalawakan mo nmn ung pag iicip mo,wala nmn cguro masama o malaswa sa pagpapadede sa baby nya na nangangailangan ng gatas that time.
Ganyan ang pag iisip ng isang babaeng wala pang plano mag ka baby, hindi ninyo siya masisisi kung ganyan ang opinyon niya.
For Ms RR! Topics like breastfeeding should only be discuss with people who really respect others especially mothers doing their responsibility as great parents to their young ones. As for you which clearly shows that you're not a mother yet, I suggest you keep your opinion with you and share it once you already have your first born.
Yea, because the "proper" way to show your private parts is not through breastfeeding. Mas acceptable pag sa TV or sa Magazine. Or better yet sa Kalendaryo.
Ano daw?!
ReplyDeleteSabi nya sa huli b feeding ok in public. Tapos no rules? Sa una dapt magtakip? Ano ba talaga ateeeh
DeleteAkala ko ako lang naguluhan on what seemed to be a contradicting statement. Convey your thoughts well ateng. Ano ba talaga pinaglalaban mo? Agree or disagree? Which one is it?
DeleteHate talaga ha. ano tiisin hindi i-breastfeed yung bata kahit umiiyak at gutom na para sayo?
Deleteginaya niya si kc montero na nag-comment about breastfeeding in public...kaso sablay dahil mas maayos lang ng konti ang sulat niya kesa ke ruffa mae quinto
DeleteParelevant na nmn sya. Sumasakay sa issue ni kc montero. Hello RR! Unang una walang nakakahiya sa pag feed sa public. If dun comfortable ang mag ina na mag feed w/o cover d go. Bkit nakakasakit b sila ng iba? Ang masama ung utak nio na makikitid. Dhil ang tingin nio sa mga nanay na nag fifeed sa public ay malaswa. Ano gusto nio gawin ng nanay hayaan umiyak ang ank nya kung wala nmn feeding station? Dpt kahit saan pwed sila amb feed kung wala nmn nilaan na feeding station sa kanila.
DeleteSana Hindi muna niya inubos yung botte ng Alak bago siya nagpost!
DeleteAng gulohhh (hik)
RR, please stop your postings regarding this matter. Ang gulo ng statement mo, dapat tinagalog mo na lang, mas mahusay ka sigurong mag-express ng opinion sa tagalog. Readers are confused with your contradicting statements.

DeleteThis is so true. Halos labas na nga kaluluwa nya habang sumasayaw. Ang gulo pa ng pinagsasasabi.
DeleteBOOM!!! #BURN
DeleteAs much as hindi ko maintindihan ang pinupunto nya, medyo conflict yung words na ginamit; eto nalang: are you saying that it is okay for a woman to commercialize her boobs ( topless in a movie, an ad, a commercial or a show) but not to breastfeed in public? And you are suggesting to cover it up because awkward? You are a classic example of a person who sexualize the breast as a body part in a malicious form and seem to forget what it is mainly used for. Kung gaano kalaki ang boobs mo, ganun naman kaliit ang utak mo. No one has the right to stop any breastfeeding mother in feeding her child at any cost and at any place. If you think that there is no issue in breastfeeding in a restroom para hindi awkward, i challenge you to eat in a public restroom and tell us kung okay ba. Its like saying its okay to feed your baby in a restroom because okay lang din sayo kumain sa banyo.
DeleteKudos to you. Natumpak mo. Sapul!
DeleteIm a mom at tyinaga ko talaga ibreastfeed yung baby ko for 18 months. it wasn't easy kasi nga kahit nasa restaurant ka kung kailangan mong ibreastfeed ung anak mo, gagawin mo.. pero ako naman, lagi akong may dalang pang-takip, ayoko naman ma-awkward yung iba tsaka ang pangit naman ng pakiramdam na nakubuyangyang yang suso mo in public. respeto ko na din yun sa sarili ko. nanay ako at naawkward ako pag nakakakita ako ng basta na lang nakalabas at kitang kita. walang mali sa pagbibreastfeed in public pero kailangan takpan naman.
ReplyDeleteI agree with you. I'll be a mom soon planning to breastfeed but i am planning to use a cover to breastfeed, hindi yung iawawkward mo ibang tao.
DeleteAldub you mommy for understanding basic public etiquette.
DeleteOf course it is okay to breastfeed in public but to show the world your privates is another story.
Agree with you, you can breastfeed discreetly. Not everyone can be accommodating, and some cultures get offended with exposed breasts.
Delete1:12 Mommy-to-be, hope you can find and get that nursing bib or nursing wrap, coz it's actually very comfy for you and baby. I breastfed both my kids, the younger one till 30 months, and that cover helped so much when we're out.
I ma also a mom. Okay lang naman na mag b.feed sa labas as long na may pangtakip. Papayag kaba makitaan ng boobs. Dba hindi.
DeletePero pwede ba ilagay na lang yun sa bottle save it pag lalabas kayo sa public area? - sorry not yet a mom. kid
Deleteyes, 1:12 and promise napakaganda ng resulta sa pagbi-breastfeed. walang masama magbreastfeed in public, and hindi naman sobrang effort kung magdala ka ng pangtakip, lampin nga lang keri na. lol.
DeletePero reality rin po na may mga bata na ayaw na natatakpan sila. I know that for a fact kasi ganun ang dalawang pamangkin ko. I get your point but not two babies are the same and I think when it comes to breastfeeding, in private or in public, the 1st consideration is the baby. And if the baby is more comfortable without a cover then the mother should not be crucified for that.
DeleteIf a person feels uncomfortable with it, look away. Don't take photos of the mom...
same thought. pangit din talaga tingnan nakabuyangyang ang suso mo so if u know na anytime gusto maglatch ni baby always bring pangcover. self respect na din un.
DeleteAnon 2:57, not recommended
DeleteAko, never ako nagtakip. Bakit? Kasi ayaw ng anak ko, pero sa totoo lang, wala talagang makikita eh, diakarte moves tawag dun.hehe may tube ka sa loob ng kung ano mang sinuot mo tapos itataas mo lang. At pwede ba, kung ayaw makakita ng konting skin, eh di wag tumingin.
DeleteI am a breastfeeding mom. I tried to bottle feed my baby but she only wants direct latch and she dont like to cover so what to do but feed her in the way she is comfortable. I admire one breast feeding dad who wrote about breastfeeding in public and he said there, if you are a baby do you want to eat in the dark with cover?
DeleteAnon 2:57AM, Moms can pump and store in bottle but there are times that only direct breastfeeding could calm a baby. There are babies who hate covers too. Suffocating for them. Let's not be too quick to judge. Moms don't do it to display their boobs. Believe me, I was forced to feed without cover once as it was the only setting that could pacify my baby at that time.
DeleteI agree with 12:58. I am also a breastfeeding mom of a 7 month old baby. Sometimes it is hard to use a cover especially when the baby is irritated or if he is in a very playful mode. He would grab the cover and expose himself. Pls do not judge breastfeeding moms with or without cover. No woman wants to expose their private parts. She might just be in a situation where she had no choice.
DeleteSad that people here stare at breastfeeding moms. Back in canada, no one ever stared at any breastfeeding moms. They even allow moms to breastfeed in fitting rooms (walmart).
Ms. RR, lets wait till you become a mom and see if you would understand the situation better. By the way, it is better that your breast be exposed due to breastfeeding rather than exposed in a magazine for a living. SHAME ON YOU.
Breastfed din baby ko pero i dont really mind other moms breastfeeding in public without cover because there's nothing wrong with that. As for my personal preference may dala ako takip or kung wala man i make sure na di makikita breast ko, kasi di ako komportable na may ibang titingin sa boobs ko. I am just not confident with my body kaya ako ganun. Ok lang din naman si baby kahit may takip. Ang importante i was able to breastfeed my baby.
DeleteAll of you who commented and replied here must be educated that breastfeeding should be accepted as a norm in our society. It's nothing to be ashamed or embarrassed about. You don't need to cover or hide. Kaya madami ang naawkwardan sa sitwasyon kasi kayo mismo na mga babae na nagmamay-ari ng boobs nyo na pampadede, ikinahihiya nyo. Kayo mismo ang naghahypersexualize ng sitwasyon.
DeleteBreastfeeding in public with cover or not as long as you attend to the need of your child is okay. No two babies are alike, my lo don't want any covers so what to do? Fight the bitch fit? People sexualize breast na hindi naman dapat. What's "nakabuyangyang?" Hindi mo naman ilalabas lang ang boobs mo to entertain people eh! You are nurturing hello?!
DeleteTry to eat under the duvet or a blanket let's see how you feel. If you feel uncomfortable as adult?! Nuff said!
Everyone is entitled to do things their way as long as wala silang sinasagasaan na ibang tao. I breastfed my daughter exclusively for more than a year and when I did so in public, I would use a nursing cover. I guess there are people who feel uncomfortable seeing women's private part in public and that's ok, it's understandable naman.
ReplyDeleteWhy call it "private part"? What's wrong with using the word "breast"?
ReplyDeleteIn other parts of the world, they call it private parts.
DeletePrivate part, i guess, because not supposed to be seen. Unless you have your breasts out in the open, pwede syang ndi private part. :)
DeleteCge nga RR try mo ngang kumain sa bathroom nang restaurant. It's the same concept, the child is eating while at the restaurant. Kaya ang hirap isulonh ang karapatan nang mga breastfeeding moms kasi kahit ikaw na babae di mo naiintindihan ang pinaglalaban nila.
ReplyDeletete please lang ang point dito is takpan ang breast habang nagpapa-didi ok? hindi naman sinabi na di pwede magpa-didi in public pero sana may takip.. ok na ba? please lang laliman ang pagka intindi.. mommy din ako dati pag pumupunta kami ng mall nagpapa didi ako sa anak ko pero nagtatakip din ako kasi nga nakakahiya para sa akin at para sa ibang tao..
DeleteI agree
DeleteNaguluhan ako sa statement mo against ka ba or push? Ano yung no rules keme keme ewan!!!!
ReplyDeleteShe has so much to say about this and yet we didn't hear her comments about Miley Cyrus' constant breasts exposure.
ReplyDeleteBreastfeeding is natural thing to do.
Stupid bitch! Papansin tong RR na 'to!
And what can you expect from her? She sees nothing wrong with exposing breasts for a men's magazine to be ogled at and God-knows-what-else by hundreds of men.
Deletesuper agree! tsaka how about her wearing sexy dress na nakalabas ang cleavege d ba mas masagwa yun!
DeleteTagalugin mo na lng please.
ReplyDeleteIs it me lang ba or malabo ang direction ng essay ni RR? Una kala ko against sya sa breastfeeding in public tapos sa last sentence breasfeeding is ok na in public? Anu daw teh? Deadma na sa grammar and punctuations (or lack thereof) pero labo talaga, RR. Ikaw yata ang kulang ng fresh milk e? Baka makatulong sa brain cells.

ReplyDeletePlangak
DeleteExactly my point!
DeleteAng gulo! Hahaha
ReplyDeleteNudity is okay, feeding a child is not???????
ReplyDeleteRR, ano ba. Nursing cover lang tawag dun.
ReplyDeleteKung wala kase pang cover sana sa ilalim nalang iopen yung blouse para nipple lang ilabas.ang tyan naman ng nanay ma takpan ng katawan ng bata.ganun gingawa ko.d nmn need ilabas buong dede mo
ReplyDeleteNaalala ko noon nasakay kami ng jeep ni nanay, ung ale nag papadede sa anak nya. Basta lang nilabas ung dede para sa anak. Ngayon dami na arte.
ReplyDeletePersonally because of this scenario, i never learned how to breastfeed my daughter sa labas ng bahay. Nakaka stress, dadala pa ng balabal e ayaw naman ng anak ko me takip.
Times have changed. Dumami na kaartehan
instead of bashing mothers for publicly breastfeeding their children, why not educate men not to maliciously gawk on them?
Deletemothers giving the holier-than-thou attitude are the worst!
#my2cents
OK try mo I educate the uneducated masses.
DeleteHonestly kahit educated men also can't help but look at women breast feeding in public may cover man or wala. Even women also looks at them. Sa una and makes a 2nd look pa, men and women yan ha from an upscale mall pa. yung iba nonstop staring talaga so really can't help talaga to get stared at. NASA mom in Lang yan if OK sya to be stared at or not..
Sus ako nagpapabreastfeed ako, nakabuyangyang man ang boobie ko para sa magandang dahilan. Eh ikaw naglantad ka ng katawan para saan?? Hay sus magmalinis ka pa, breastfeeding is natural kung ayaw mo wag ka tumingin and di mo alam kasi wala ka pang anak.
ReplyDeleteMinsan nakakatawa ka pero now nakakasuka ka! Christian ba yan pananaw na ba yan? Hays
Dapat lang naman talaga may cover kung nag papa breastfeed kang may mga tao sa paligid mo. Common sense! Hindi rin kse tama na nakikita ang suso mo ng maraming tao. Unless you breastfeed na ikaw lang tao its ok na walang cover. I have 3 children and lahat sila breastfed at common sense or mahiya ka naman na nakikita ang suso mo ng ibang tao. Gets nyo? Sana wag utak talangka ang mga tao. Isip isip din ng tama. May tamang lugar para sa mga taong nag papa dede.
ReplyDeleteAnon 12:30, pag gutom at ngumangawa na ang sanggol mo, hahanapin mo pa ang "tamang lugar para sa mga taong nagpapadede"???
DeleteI understand your point but do not generalize ALL mothers can breastfeed with a cover up kung uncomfortable ang baby nila. Unang una, humid dito sa pilipinas, try mong icover ang mukha mo ng nasa public place ka na mainit ewan ko lang kung di ka pawisan, ganun din ang mga baby. How about this:teach men and the public that breastfeeding is breastfeeding. And breasts should not be seen as a malicious object. Yun lang naman yun. In the end, preference ng nanay at baby yan. Lastly, wag ka din utang lutang.
DeleteAnon-1230
DeleteMaka common sense ka nman! LOL So if ayaw ng anak nmen may cover, ibigsabihin mga mangmang kme? I think you're delirious! We don't need to sacrifice comfort to please other people. Hindi yan nakabuyangyang, dumedede anak namen. We're not crazy to show our boobs without a purpose. It's just skin! Women wear bikini with the same flesh showing the same as the bfeeding mums!
aral muna teh! Pa liko-liko statement mo kinabog ang roller coaster! Di ka ba nahilo sa pinagsasabi mo? hahahaha
ReplyDeleteKinabog ang roller coaster! Natawa ako dun!
DeleteI'm sorry but "proper way of breastfeeding"? Tama naman latch nung baby ah?? Meron bang ibang proper? Wala naman sinabi sa batas hahahah
ReplyDeletePag nasa mall at or kahit saang public place need mag pa breastfeed cover up naman. Nakakadiri makita ang mga laylay nyong suso...... Mahiya hiya naman kayo!!! Juskomio!!! Walang mga knowledge sa tamang pag uugali ng tamang breastfeeding.......
ReplyDeleteAnon 12:33: edi wag kayong tumingin!!! Ang isang ina, inuuna ang kapakanan ng anak bago sarili niya. Nagpapadede siya para sa sanggol niya, hindi para sa ikagiginhawa ng tao sa paligid niya.
DeleteWhy the need to comment about the condition of their breasts? Lalaylay din suso mo...mga lalaki nga lumalaylay din suso aka dad bod.
DeleteSo would it make a difference anon 12.33 if perky boobies ang makikita mo?
Deleteim an advocate of breastfeeding. my lil one is 2 1/2yo na and still breastfeeding,pure since birth. i do breastfead in public places pero may takip, para di expose ang breast. pero ung top lang tlga at ang anak ko hindi natatakpan dahil maiinitan din sya. to those na exposed talaga,i dont want to judge them. Comportable naman sila na exposed so wala na tayo dun. But really may mga lalake na pervert at pag nakakita ng ganun e ewan na lang. pero kahit di pervert,naiilang ang mga guys. Ang husband ko is not letting me exposed my breast.
ReplyDeleteTry mo muna mganak para alam mo ung sinasabi mo. Like sa panahon ngaun, mainit... tapos cocover mo pa ung anak mo while breastfeeding, magiiyak tlga ung baby dhil d sya comfortable. Konti lng ang breastfeeding station sa public places kaya wlang choice ang nanay. A newborn baby would usually have to be fed every 2 to 3 hours. Cguro bago mo sabhing mali ang pagpapabreastfeed tingnan mo muna kng pano ka manamit, indi porket nakatago ang nipple mo mas desente kna sa mga nanay na ngpapabreastfeed.

Deleteuhm, "thinking that breastfeeding in public is gross or nakakahiya" is a perverted idea and it says more about the person judging than the mother breastfeeding in public. yung breasts are for feeding infants talaga nagiging over sexualize lang because of society. napaka immature mag isip ni RR.
ReplyDeletemano ba naman gumamit ng lampin para takpan ang hinaharap
ReplyDeleteI have breast fed my son for 3years anywhere and everywhere here locally and abroad. Airport mall street. restaurant. Hotel lobby airline u name it I must have done it. But I always do it with my breast feeding cover, I am never withput it and don't have the guts to be comfortable with all the stares I'll get if I do it without the cover. I think I was never ever denied to do it since I do it discreetly here and abroad. Coz honestly even I can't help but stare at moms breastfeeding in public without a cover so what more men, and it also makes me uncomfortable, that's why I myself don't want to experience that so I use my cover all the time. It is a fact and it's natural but nowadays it's a matter of being decent. Just my opinion.
ReplyDeleteI feel sorry for you TEH. Sana nagisip ka mabuti bago mo pinost haha. Ano talaga, pabor oh HINDE?? HAHAHA gulo mo

ReplyDeleteTrying hard to appear smart and updated about relevant events. Tama na RR, baka dumugo na ilong mo sa pagka trying hard mo.
DeleteSana tinagalog mo na lng.
ReplyDeleteAnu ba talaga ateng? ang gulo ng statement mo
ReplyDeleteNaku, RR, hindi ka siguro nag-breastfeed sa nanay mo, kaya ka ganyan.
ReplyDeleteAng pinag-uusapan lang sa "proper breastfeeding" ay latching at walang kinalaman sa pagcover ng breasts. Nalito ako sa sinasabi niyang pag-cover ng "private part" --ang ibig ba niyang sabihin, kailangan naka-panty si mother para mag-breastfeed. Malamang naman siguro no?! Kung ang ibig naman niyang sabihin ay breasts, well, subukan niyang kumain sa tapos may lampin sa ulo niya --o kaya kumot? Di ba nakakairita?
A woman has a right to breastfeed in public dahil ang sanggol na nagugutom hindi namimili ng lugar at panahon. Whether or not she wants to use a cover, it's her choice and her choice alone. Let's #normalizebreastfeeding.
Kaloka ito. Kung naeeskandalo ka, wag kang tumingin.
Then at least find the most private place where you can feed the child without having to display your breasts out in open for the public to stare at. Know your child's feeding habits para alam mo when to feed them.
DeletePeople go crazy when others show skin (bathing suits, tiny shorts, tiny blouses). Babastusin ka if you show some skin. Anything that shows skin is considered scandalous. Have a little self respect and also respect other people's preference not to see your breasts. Be fair.
No one's forcing people to watch but if you display your breasts for them to look at, what do you expect them to do? Poke their own eyes out? Pretend they didn't see? You are putting the general public in a very awkward position. It is called basic public etiquette. Do not use your child to justify your display of breasts.
I could go on and on about this but at the end of the day, to each his own. I respect your opinion.
Anon 2:19: thanks for your insights. May I just ask if you are a breastfeeding mother?

Delete"Then at least find the most private place where you can feed the child without having to display your breasts out in open for the public to stare at. Know your child's feeding habits para alam mo when to feed them."
-- I take it you're not a mom, because if you are, then you should know that not all babies are the same. Some are predictable, some are not. We are not perfect, and our babies aren't either. They do not follow a schedule. Even if you think you know when your baby will be hungry, he/she will sometimes surprise you.
Also, I hope you keep that in mind for when you are disturbed by a crying child and his/her mother won't nurse because they are in a public place. I do think a crying child is more annoying that someone breastfeeding and minding their own business.
"People go crazy when others show skin (bathing suits, tiny shorts, tiny blouses). Babastusin ka if you show some skin. Anything that shows skin is considered scandalous. Have a little self respect and also respect other people's preference not to see your breasts. Be fair."
-- This is a statement that actually reflects what YOU think, not what OTHERS think. If for you, showing skin is scandalous, then that's YOUR opinion, not OTHER PEOPLE'S. And that's okay, but don't pretend to speak for others.
Also, I think your definition of self-respect is dependent on other people as well. Don't you think that's problematic? Why would you other people's opinion of you shape your view of yourself? And isn't using your breasts for its intended purpose also respecting your body?
People who show skin are not the problem, it's the people who disrespect them. People who are generally disrespectful will always be that way, whether you show skin or not. We deal with them in different ways. Some simply grit their teeth and bear it. Others are more argumentative. We have no right to dictate how others should act. You can only control your own reaction.
"No one's forcing people to watch but if you display your breasts for them to look at, what do you expect them to do? Poke their own eyes out? Pretend they didn't see? You are putting the general public in a very awkward position. It is called basic public etiquette. Do not use your child to justify your display of breasts."
-- Do you really think breastfeeding moms display their breasts because they WANT to? Breastfeeding moms do what they NEED to do, and showing a little skin is sometimes necessary to do that. At the end of the day, people will always do something offensive to you. People will spit on the ground, hug and kiss in public, even grope each other in public. Someone always gets offended. What do these offended people do? Do they poke their eyes out? LOOK AWAY. There. End of drama. Did your rights get violated? Were you physically hurt (or sprayed with bodily fluids)? No? Then shut up and just look away. This is the problem with us today. We get offended and we automatically think we are entitled to something. That's not how it should go. We all have rights, and as long as we don't impinge each other's rights, being offended doesn't mean sh*t. It just means you are human and have an opinion.
I do respect your opinion, but I also think it says more about you and your view about women in general. Also, please educate yourself about the rights of breastfeeding women here and in the US (since I'm assuming that this incident happened there, as the lady in the photo mentioned Marshall's). While you're at it, you might want to read up on women's rights in general as well. Maybe you'll change your view, maybe not, but at least you're better educated.
Of all the comments here, I responded to you because I thought your comment best sums up what should be changed about how women should view themselves. Also, it's free of unnecessary insults and looks like it was written by someone who is calm and logical.
Really now 2:19. How about educating the public not to over sexualize the breast as a malicious body part? How about that? And may i remind you that the Philippines is a hot/humid country. Why dont you try to cover your face for a few minutes in a humid place, tignan natin kung hindi ka pagpawisan ng todo. Imagine how uncomfortable it is for a baby. Remember, a mother would not let her baby sweat profusely and be uncomfortable just so people like you has the satisfaction not to feel awkward.

Delete9:13 AM, 9:40 AM, 11:52 AM:
Yes, I am a breastfeeding mom of 3 kids, ages 8, 6 and 3. All exclusive latch on until 20-25 months. My ability to have fed my babies using my body is empowering and I take pride of having conquered engorged breasts, cracked nipples, and tooth bites.
Every woman has every right on what to do with her body. However, we live in an era where we cannot force the society to rectify its view on women. In many cultures, whipping out a boob to feed the baby may or may not be seemed normal. Reality is we cannot just continue gritting our teeth because we are trying to fight for a certain right that the public is not ready to fully grasp. The public is not as accepting as we expect/want it to be.
Don’t get me wrong but I am fully comfortable with my body. I still wear swimsuits, tiny shorts, backless or sexy tops, even with some scars and imperfections showing. But I can only show so much to the public. I do not like my breasts out for the public to see when I feed my baby.
I work around the society's limits. I use a nursing cover when I breastfeed in public, even when I am inside nursing lounges or family rooms. It is my preference not to have my chest area be seen by others, again my preference. That is how I wanna conduct myself in public. However, I still support those who do not cover because I respect and support THEIR choice. Besides, other women can still maintain modesty even without the cover; pulling the boob from the bottom of the shirt, wearing baggy tops enough for cover, or facing the direction that most avoid people's direct stares.
My middle child hated the cover, I had to look for the kind that has a hole where the baby can partially see the outside and not be fully covered in darkness. There are also those kinds that are knitted but still provide good cover. My eldest child got used to the cover early on because I tried to use it at home too as training so she won't feel uncomfortable when we go out or at other people's homes. My youngest has no problem with covers either; if being breastfeed without it, he'd pull my top to cover his face. So yes, I know that no child is the same as the other, the struggle is real people. It depends on how I find a solution that works for both the baby and I. Sometimes I had to sit in the corner of a busy department store, or hurry back to the car, etc. It is a private and quiet moment I share with my baby and I do not want other people to bother us.
I also believe that there are certain things that should be kept within the family or between husband and wife. It is natural for women to breastfeed in public, covered or not. However, please also consider that men have a natural attraction to breasts; we have informed and uninformed men in the society; some women/people also believe that some parts should be kept covered. I am not speaking on behalf of the general public. It is just my take and understanding on people’s behavior. Educating the public to accept our belief might help but please be realistic that people will always have different judgments no matter how confident we are in what we are fighting for. May it be on nursery vs stay-home care, breastfeed or not, cloth or plastic diapers, it can become a crazy discussion.
It is my opinion not to put the public in an akward position around uncovered moms. Do not make my personal preference as an attack to other women. I can fight alongside other women for their right but I make the decisions I wanna make. I do not have to share your preference for me to support you. Others even mommy-shamed those who wanted to cover up. There is really no need for that. We need to make it two-way respect. Support one another ladies.
Sya lang nakakaintindi ng post nya hahahaha!
ReplyDeleteBaka na gets din ni Rufa Mae
DeleteAno ba mali sa pag breastfeed sa public? Wala naman siguro di ba? Ang mali eh kung paano bigyan at tignan ang nagpapadede na ina. Problema kasi sa panahon ngayon lahat ginagawang malisyoso. Nung panahon naman na di pa nauuso ang fhm, at kung ano man klase ng magazine na medyo malaswa, eh wala naman nasasabi sa pag breastfeed. Sana isipin nila kung ano ang halaga nito sa sanggol at ang bond na nagagawa nito sa ina.
ReplyDeleteHindi lahat ng tao alam ang halaga ng breastfeeding. Pero alam natin na binabastos talaga if we show some skin. So go figure. Should we force the ignorant public to understand or take the initiative to cover?
Delete@2:23 - to each his own. Or in this case, to each her own. If you want to cover, go ahead. If you don't want to cover, go ahead, too. Choice mo 'yan. Just don't persecute others for their choices kung hindi naman naaapakan ang rights mo.
DeleteYour rights end when the next person's rights start, vice versa. It is a complicated social conflict. No one is persecuting anyone, this is just a matter of differences in opinions and choices.
DeleteNaku naku mukang hindi nakatikim ng gatas ng ina tong si RR.. Walang sustansya ang utak
ReplyDeletetry mo.muna mgbaby RR bago ka mgcomment. wla kng alam kng gano kahirap mgpabreastfeed.lalo na kng ung baby mo sensitive,kht simpleng cover umiiyak.
ReplyDeleteSome babies aren't comfortable w/ nursing covers. A mother has the right to feed her baby when needed so. Now, if anyone's finds that scandalous, he/she is free to look the other way. Ugh no one's forcing them to watch!!
ReplyDeleteAh okay! Teka ano ulet?! Ay teka wag mo na explain hihilo ako!
ReplyDeleteWhat a hypocrite.
ReplyDeletekorek! i was abojt to comment the same thing. this hypocrite ignorant is saying to cover the private part! please kung siya nga nakabuyangyang private niya for sexual reasons on the internet. ang problen dito is the people who are narrow minded people should nkrmalize bfeeding! with lr withoit cover im a bfeeding mom and i know for a fact that most of the time even if you want to cover yourself with a nursing cover your baby wont allow you to bec the baby feels uncomfortable. kayo kaya kumain sa ilalim ng kjmot! ang dudumi kasi ng mga isip ng iba. pag sa beach or magazines ok lang expose breast? pero to feed ur hungry child bawal? para saan ba ang boobs? wtf!!! #normalizebreastfeeding dont be idiots. you dont know rhe effort and sacrifices breastfeeding mothers go through. ang hassle tapos tatapunan niyo pa ng judgements kaya most moms prefer to bottlefeed their child eh. please lang if you dont want to see it dont look. its normal to feed a hungry baby in public WITH OR WITHOUT a cover.
Delete2:38 and 4:08 di sa beach kayo mag breast feed na nakalabas boobs. Gads, makagawa lang ng issue. RR was a sexystar and she posed in a magazine or movie/tv with r rating and people who want to see can buy or watch. Eh yung public breast feeding walang choice yung tao kundi makita ka. SAGWA and inconsiderate
DeleteHonestly my baby sometimes don't want to be covered when nursing in public. BUT I THINK ITS how u discipline and talk to ur child that we need to be covered while nursing in public. Usually kasi the ones who demand not to be covered are those mga 8mons old or above na and the mom can kinda talk to them pa din to be covered I experienced this a no of times and nakakastress talaga. U just need to be firm Lang with them they'll listen eventually kahit ilang times p kayo maghilaan ng cover perk they'll eventually listen. And some babies kc they want to look at their moms while nursing. U can open d top cover of the cloth naman to do it and appease them. Or u can buy a cover na there's a slight opening on d top to adjust the cloth so u can view ur child while ur nursing him keron s Sm P599 Lang I switched to this and OK naman Mas napapacify my child na minsan ayaw patakip since I use this na.
DeleteAno kamo ateh?
ReplyDeleteAy nkakaloka po ang mga celebrities na nagmamarunong about sa tamang pagbreastfeed ah. Bakit di nyo muna icriticize ang mga babaeng tulad ni RR na nagpopost ng nude sa mens mag? Si miley na panay pakita ng front nya? Inaano ba kayo ng moms just doin breastfeeding in public w or w/o cover? Natural mente gutom ang bagets sino ka para sitahin ang DPAT normal activities of a mom and her infant. Kaya big deal ngayon kasi DAMI nagmamarunong at hypocrites tulad ni RR .. #hypocrite level100000000
ReplyDeleteteh.. Marshalls is a mall sa US hindi tao! kaloka naman nahilo ako sa opinion mo. nagtagalog kanalang sana geeezzzz
ReplyDeleteTo cover or not to cover is a choice that should be made by moms, not demanded by a society that views boobies as sex organs.
ReplyDeleteAgree!
DeleteDon't hate on moms for using their boobies for what nature has intended them for -- to nourish babies. Hiya naman kaming mga babies sa inyo !
ReplyDeleteSo nature ng boobies that you display them?
DeleteSige maglakad ka nga na nakabuyangyang kaluluwa mo in public. I dare you.
Magtakip! Our bottom part is also intended by nature to relieve toxins from our body. Does that mean we should use themin public? STUPID LOGIC PEOPLE.
Deleteexplain ur logic to a baby! paano kung ayaw ng baby ng may cover? kumain ka nga ng sopas na mainit sa ilalim ng kumot!
DeleteSobrang stupid lang ng logic nyo jusko 10:29 9:49. A classic example of oversexualizing the breast. It reflects how your perceive breastfeeding rather than what it is intended for.
DeleteWalang sense si ate. Kinulang sa tulog, baka nabusinahan din ng malakas.
ReplyDeletewalang kwenta mga nursing covers sa akin kasi ayaw ng baby ko pede naman cover sa una para mailabas lang ang breast tapos dapat nakadikit sau baby mo parang ung position ng skin to skin contact ung shirt mo magcocover ng breast pwede mo rin gmitin kamay pantakip. Pagnakatulog na doon pwede mo na lagyan ng manipis na lampin
ReplyDeleteNakakahiya naman sa yo RR. Okay lang mangbully sa kalsada ng mga commuters sa PUV pero bawal mag BF sa restaurant at dapat me takip. Judgmental much?!
ReplyDeleteRR, malamang hindi ka breasted dahil sa nakakahilong statement mo. Or sinadya mo yung ganyang English para mag-trend ka ulit?
ReplyDeleteI breastfed my baby for 18 months. No formula milk. Whenever we go out may dala akong nursing cover. Pero naghahanap ako lagi ng breastfeeding area kasi ayaw ng anak ko na may takip siya.
ReplyDeletePersonal preference ko lang ito because I find nothing wrong in breastfeeding in public kahit walang cover.
Eh kung gutom na gutom na ang anak mo at nasa gitna ka ng EDSA at wala kang nursing cover, matitiis mo ba?
Unang una, hindi krimen managalog. Trying hard naman kasi mag English. And secondly, napakababaw mo RR to think na nakakahiya makita ang private part ng babae na yan habang nag bbreastfeed. It's because of people like you who body-shame breastfeeding mommies who are unreasonable. Women's breasts have become so sexualized that people forget that its purpose is for providing nourishment to children to the point that most people feel uncomfortable seeing it in public during breastfeeding. Ok nandun na tayo private part but maiisip mo pa ba yon if gutom na ang anak mo?
ReplyDeleteMema lang to si RR. A piece of advice ha, kung d naman masyado gets ng poor comprehension skills mo wag na lang mag commebt. Tutal hirap ka din naman to express yourself. And you're not a mommy so who are you to dictate mommies to cover up? Para lang hindi ma uncomfy mga taong makitid utak like you, RR? Go back to dancing or something where you belong.
ReplyDeleteRR - Marshall's is a department store, hindi sya tao so don't call it "the marshall" kaloka ka! Napghahalata na di ka pa nakaka punta sa East Coast. By the way, hindi lahat ng baby pwede mong takpan! my son hated the cover I used when I was nursing him, hinihila nya kase gusto nya nakaka hinga sya and he can see me. Nursing isn't just a form of nourishment for your child, it's also a way to comfort them and create a strong bond with your child!!!
ReplyDeleteI agree with her. COVER UP in public. You can afford to shopobviously based on you and your babies clothes so you can afford those breastfeeding bib/blankets. Bakit ba atat na atat magpakita ng boobs pag nagbreast feed? As for the dressing room. It's a femaleonly dressing room right? So she should have been allowed.
ReplyDeleteAteng 10:25, obviously hindi ka nanay o lalake ka o isa kang babae malisyoso. Fyo hindi ata magpakita ng breast ang nanay. And more fyi for your stupidity, the focus of whether a nursing blanket can be used or not depends on the baby. Most babies feel incomfortable with blankets. Mainit, sagabal at mahirap makafeed. Gets mo na? Tanga mo.
DeleteShongak ni RR. Gulo ng thoughts. Nagpost pa. Jusmio!
ReplyDeleteKaloka si ate girl halatang uneducated.
ReplyDeleteSa dressing room naman pala magbebreast feed e dapat allowed yan kasi walang area allotted for bf. Napaka unsanitary kaya nyan, cla kaya try nila kumain sa cr. RR ang breast di yan ginawa ng Dios para sa lalaki, ginawa yan para sa mga sanggol. Bakit ikakahiya magbf kung yun nman talaga ang purpose nun. Bat di ka mahiya sa ginagawa mong paglantad sa breast mo na wala na mang purpose. Di ka mahiya pinapangalandakan mo pang christian ka.
ReplyDeleteTAGALOG nalang teh,pwedi? trying hard masyado ang p**a
ReplyDeleteNa-lost ako sa sinabi niya, huwag kasing magpumilit na maruong kang mag-English. Try Google Translate my dear, at least people can comprehend the translations.
ReplyDeleteGulo mo teh! Nag pa breastfeed aq sa anak ko 4 almost 2years. Di mo na maiicip yan kung nasa public place ka at nagwala ang baby mo lalo na kung ikaw lang mag isa. Syempre mas uunahin q patahanin ang anak ko bago ang sarili ko..

Breastfeeding mom din ako sa 2 kids ko nung 0-3 years old sila. Minsan demanding talaga ang mga jugets, wala silang pinipiling lugar. Kaya dapat handa ka. May mga tao kasi na either nababastusan sa nakikita nila or they simply want you to be respected by people na mejo makitid ang utak. Dapat lang maginvest sa breastfeeding clothing/ bra na nipple mo lang ang lalabas hindi ung buong boobies mo. At kung mejo di kaya ng wallet, bili ka ng lampin at itakip mo over your shoulders and your kid, malipis lang yon.. makakahinga si bebe. sa panahon ngayon, mas tanggap ng society ang dede sa magazine kesa sa dede na nagbibigay nourishment sa bata.
ReplyDeleteMag usap kayo ni ruffa mae
ReplyDeleteScenario just in case NASA middle east country ka do u have d courage to breast feed without cover in public? Tingnan k Lang Kung di ka makulong. Ilugar din natinsarili natin . U can breast feed anywhere as long as magcover na Lang. Mas masasanay din anak mo Kung ever since sanay sya since malitt na covered pay feeding sya outside .
ReplyDeleteTe sa middle east lahat ng mall ay may bf rooms. Naku wag kang kumuda kung di ka pa nakakarating dto. Di nman need mag bf in public if may allotted rooms no.
DeleteThere are nursing covers that u can adjust the top so u can see ur baby while nursing and he is still covered pa din and it has a little space so that cloth is not touching his face and he can breathe but he is still fully covered. SM. rustans or online stores have this 599 OR BELOW OR SOME 800 .if u only have do regular nursing cloth u can actually hold d cloth n give ur baby a little space so he can breathe while nursing him. NASA diskarte yan pag ayaw mo talaga mag nurse without cover. baby ko nagaaway kami while he's nursing pero napapacify ko din by constantly talking n medyo paypayan mo d cover while nursing so para may hangin sya coz ayaw no talaga magnurse without cover.
ReplyDeleteLampin lang pwede na gawing cover. At rr wala ka pa kasing anak, kaya di mo alam pinagdadaanan ng mga nanay. Iwas iwas sa english mo kasi imbes na magkakaintindihan tayo ginulo mo lalo hehehe...
ReplyDeletepara sa wlang anak, hindi pa nakakaranas magkagats dapat yata shut up ka na lang di ba?
ReplyDeleteEh kung takpan mo din kaya ung boobies mo sa magazine!
ReplyDeleteatcheng nakakahilo ang post mo, magtagalog ka nalang. may nalalaman ka pang proper way. so kung starlet katulad mo ang magpost sa magazine without cover ng private part oks lang? pero pag nanay na nagpapadede in public hindi pede, hindi ok? maraming bata ang ayaw ng nursing cover at may mga bata na sobrang nagdedemand na ng gatas, agad agad kelangan magpadede. pede ba, tumahimik ka na lang rr at mag aral ka ng english!

ReplyDeletedami nyo problema ke rr hhahaaa may point naman sya and stick to that dont go beyond d parameters kung ayaw nyo e d magpasusp kau sa public ng walang takip or go for the other side opinion
ReplyDeletePlease go back to primary school RR.
ReplyDelete"wag magsalita ,sa isang bagay kung dmo pa nmn nararanasan" madaling magbigay ng opinion sa mga bagay bagay na nakikita ng ating mata. ayaw mong makakita ng nanay na nag papabreastfeed at kw pa ung nahihiya, for sure ung mga nanay ayw din nila na ipapakita nila ung maselang bahagi ng katawan nila para sa "PERA". at note dba sa cr nmn sya nagpadede so meaning kpwa babae lng ung nakakakita, at kung lalawakan mo nmn ung pag iicip mo,wala nmn cguro masama o malaswa sa pagpapadede sa baby nya na nangangailangan ng gatas that time.
ReplyDeleteTseh! Kung ikaw nga halos maghubad ka dati sa wowowee!
ReplyDeleteGanyan ang pag iisip ng isang babaeng wala pang plano mag ka baby, hindi ninyo siya masisisi kung ganyan ang opinyon niya.
ReplyDeleteFor Ms RR! Topics like breastfeeding should only be discuss with people who really respect others especially mothers doing their responsibility as great parents to their young ones. As for you which clearly shows that you're not a mother yet, I suggest you keep your opinion with you and share it once you already have your first born.
Wow RR squatter na squatter Lang?
ReplyDeleteYea, because the "proper" way to show your private parts is not through breastfeeding. Mas acceptable pag sa TV or sa Magazine. Or better yet sa Kalendaryo.
