Default NIP in church? Appropriate?

I was shocked when I read on another chat board a woman - a young
woman, in her 20s, who says she NIPs herself - stated that it was
inappropriate in church and was offended when a woman did. And what's
more, many people agreed it was the one place where it wasn't
appropriate.

I'd think it was the one place that was most appropriate! Madonna and
babe and all that. Even in the few very conservative Catholic churches
I've been in, such a scene is welcomed. I'm beginning to think it
really is all the old folks who support NIP more than the young ones.


ITA with you. We sit in the third pew, and I've never left Mass to
nurse. Lorelei is almost two, and I only recently started discouraging
her from nursing in church (still would if she really needed it as
opposed to just being bored).
