"Wal-Mart right to say no"
Now that I think about it..... I'm a very modest person, and have at times gone
to the restrooms to BF. I found myself sitting on the floor of the handicapped stall. It wasn't pleasant! If for some insane reason wal-mart does require BF mothers to use their restrooms the least they could do is provide chairs. ~Tracy who has overcome the modesty thing, for the most part. |

The LEAST they could do would be to CLEAN the restrooms :-P Yukko. I would NEVER EVER nurse in a WalMart bathroom. I would seek a fitting room, or a pharmacy if I needed a chair and a bit of privacy (the pharmacies, even those in grocers, often have lovely chairs with backsupports) Actually, I ususally dressed with NIP in mind, and would latch him on in a quiet aisle, then adjust clothes et al, and carry on. there was ONE time when I sought out the chairs in customer service, where it was deserted and the only place I could find a seat, and was less discreet than usual with latching, as there wasn't a soul around, only to look up as DS settled in, and see a security camera straight in front of me ;-) I just waved. :-)) Dawn |

"Wal-Mart right to say no"

I dont get any evil-eye reactions, mostly benevolent smiles from people. |

No one's ever even given me a funny look. I try not the even change a baby in the bathroom - they're pretty unpleasant. Phoebe |

No one's ever even given me a funny look. I've never had a funny look either. Co-workers, however, have recounted stories of women they've seen N'ingIP, and have likened it to defacating IP. I try not the even change a baby in the bathroom - they're pretty unpleasant. Oh, I know! I once spread a bunch of newspapers on the floor of a bathroom in a cafe when I was desparate for someplace to change Sprogly. There was just nowhere else to go, but I hated it. Here in NYC there's often no public bathroom at all, and when there is, there are rarely changing facilities there. -- z e l d a b e e @ p a n i x . c o m http://NewsReader.Com/ http://mysite.verizon.net/vze1vy2t/sprogly/ |

If I cant find a place to change the baby, I sit down and change the baby on my lap, better my pants get dirty than the baby. I always keep a changing pad or receiving blanket for that purpose. |

You know, I think the only bathroom I've bf in has been my own ... *g* I was gonna post that.... (and now that you say that, I don't know if I have bf in any other, either....) Dawn, recalling wondering what on EARTH I was gonna do if the doorbell rang before DS would latch off. |
