[@AndreiaSilva-bf1ll]

klinecks boo me!! 🖑🖑🖑

[@TheLipGoss]

me!

[@Hmcknight87]

klinecks boo 🙋🏼

[@CorrieLaurie]

Haha! Actually, yes!

[@morganjones6423]

lol pumping at work!

[@KateMurnane]

This video was exactly what I needed to watch right now. Thanks Emily!

[@mrsemilynorris]

Aw love this! So glad it was helpful - Elliot is the cutest! xx

[@MissMovements]

“A good way is to flash them 😁.... a genuine smile” loool

[@lynnkanerva4519]

I don't have kids myself, but a few times I've seen someone breastfeedinng in public. I admit I was a little uncomfortable, but don't see anything wrong with it, just be a little discreet about it, and cover up a little.

[@shikhajaiswal7694]

I think I'm kind of addicted to you Emily 😱🤓

[@jenniewarbie]

mee too xxx

[@mrsemilynorris]

Haha thanks Shikha. Thank you so much for watching xx

[@zuzakokalska9255]

me too i love you movie's

[@RexySmith]

I think it bother me less feeding in public with perfect strangers than people I actually know . Because stranger are busy ,they most likely not paying attention at all to what you are doing and they just move on with their life, if you just cover yourself a little. But exemple of MIL who come sit right next to you and grab your shoulder and is just starring at you the whole time even if you have a cover on and keep saying over and over" Aw these little noise of baby sucking blablblabla "... IT irritates me so much I don't know why 😲

[@lem97lauren83]

Rexy Smith my mil stares at me and watches while I feed so uncomfortable xx

[@mrsemilynorris]

Such a good point, strangers don't need to look at you, where as people you know who would normally look at you don't know where to look! Thank you so much for watching xx

[@ellachamp]

Omg that is so annoying!

[@ashleyspiano]

Ask her if she's hungry.

[@RexySmith]

Ashley 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@danidancer23]

I know I'm the states target passed a law that any breastfeed mom gets first priority of a dressing room in front of other customers that need a room to try on clothes in order to prevent them from using the bathroom it was passed about a year or two ago :)

[@mrsemilynorris]

Great idea. Thank you so much for watching xx

[@caraleege9530]

That’s great to know!!!

[@emmawest1527]

For anyone who worries I've fed three babies in public (UK) for 5, 13 & 8 months. No one ever said anything rude or judgey to me, not ONCE! Or even even looked at me funny. 😄 if anything I got the odd supportive comment..but on the whole people just happily left me to it 👍🏼

[@mrsemilynorris]

Ah glad you had all positive experiences, and good on you for embracing it. It is so about positive thinking and mental attitude. Thank you so much for watching xx

[@jenksd]

Me too, I have a 10 year old, 5 year old and a 5 month old. I have breast fed them all everywhere and anywhere and have only ever had 1 bad look.

[@jennamariedicks]

I breastfed for 9 weeks with my son and had looks in that time but no comments. Also had a creepy man stare at me whilst feeding in restaurant and trying to eat at the same time. X

[@1Plus1isThree]

I found my car a real sanctuary when I was struggling with breastfeeding. If you are out and about you usually have your car with you, you can sit in the back and get comfortable and nobody will look, if they do, they are being rude!!

[@sarahjay3045]

Great video. Normalising breastfeeding is such a wonderful thing to do. I've been feeding for a combined total of 43 months over my two kids and never had a single glance or comment that was negative (that I noticed). I'm definitely someone who just gets on with it, but some mums don't have that same confidence so this will really help them out

[@mrsemilynorris]

Well done Sarah, and yes if it gives just one mother more confidence then it has been worthwhile. Thank you so much for watching xx

[@CindyCharles]

Big up Emily. I loved this vlog. Topic is so close to my heart. I have been told by an ignorant security guard that I'm not allowed to feed my baby in that mall but by then my boy was 4 months and I was no longer nervous about it so I gave him a piece of my mind and complained to the center management. I'm in South Africa and we also r legally allowed to breastfeed in public.

[@mrsemilynorris]

Good on you Cindy. We need to see more of this!! Thank you so much for watching xx

[@sarahhill5561]

Confidence is definitely the key, you're right, flashing a smile always works! The breastfeeding vests and tops at H&M are great & fairly inexpensive =) We recently got home from our hols & I was surprised to find that my husband snapped lots of photos of me breastfeeding our daughter in all sorts of weird and wonderful places! He says he's proud of me for sticking at it after struggling with tongue tie & ending up combination feeding due to low supply - I definitely get confused looks when I breastfeed before whipping out a bottle of formula!

[@mrsemilynorris]

Ah Sarah that is so lovely what your husband done, it all goes so quickly and bizarrely we will probably miss it one day. Thank you so much for watching xx

[@ESSIETALES]

Sarah Hill 😂 my family give me those weird looks too lol my baby is only 2weeks so I haven't been out much but my family just doesn't understand Breastfeeding when they all formula feed.

[@sarahhill5561]

Lauren Allen hopefully they'll see the benefits & be supportive soon enough =) Lots of luck with your breastfeeding & motherhood in general!!

[@lenicamonterroso7790]

I had my baby at 17 and decided to stick with breastfeeding, I live in LA California where people walk around with their boobs out but breastfeeding gets a lot of stares 🤔 luckily all my family was very supportive and nobody ever approached me to tell me anything. Many stared or looked uncomfortable but when you have a hungry baby nothing else should matter ❤️

[@caroldelosangeles3621]

Exactlyyyy the baby is priority not the other people even if is family or closer ones(should be more empath!)and also dirty looks are pervert even from old woman who only think the dirty in the world and reproducing the punnishment to moms instead to the dirty porn based society. Im so tired to see how babies pays the consecuences of moms focused at the marketing;at others looks;fashion and style instead of psicoemotional neurocognitive consecuences in adulthood to their own baby(and its a problem for the future of all!!). Stay strong moms of the world and do it for your baby and for all of human kin🌏🤰🥺💗

[@caroldelosangeles3621]

LA CALIFORNICATTIOON HOLLYWOOD darkest place in the world..of course society based on such a porn based and against newborns and mothers is like this. Stay strong moms 💗🙏

[@ohbuddyiliketowatch]

I disagree. you don't need to be covered to be respectful. boobs are meant for feeding. if a Mom. forgot a blanket and needed to feed her baby and had nothing g to cover with she should not feel bad or nervous or stressed. other people need to mind their own businesses and if they don't like it don't look. love ya but definitely disagree on that point!!!

[@imjustakid724]

ohbuddyiliketowatch same! Some babies don't like to be covered and it gets really hot under covers!! There is no need to cover up if you don't want to. The rest of the video was great though!

[@ReganLiveLaughLove]

I am NOT going to torture and punish my Little baby because others are ignorant. I honestly don't care what uneducated people have to say about it. I am extremely conservative and go to great lengths to make sure we are covered in every way. OUR God designed us all in the perfect way. It's Natural and not man made. You can control what your baby gets that is healthy. I support breastfeeding because you are helping their immune systems have a fighting chance to not be sickly with allergies etc. Hugs to you all❣💌🚼💗

[@mrsemilynorris]

Here here Regan, great words. Thank you so much for watching xx

[@SegmentswithSammy]

Regan Starr I don’t think breastfeeding is ever the problem, it’s when you don’t cover or have respect for others.

[@dianawilliams4161]

Vlogs By Steph people try to cover up a bit but it can be difficult

[@kettlebellwafer]

Vlogs By Steph I used to think this way.. until I started breastfeeding... during a summer where the temp was 100 degrees. Between my baby overheating and not getting airflow under the cover, and people being offended.. I’m sorry but my baby wins.

[@kokolatte825]

@@SegmentswithSammy it's not necessarily "disrespectful" if someone is not covered to you liking. You always have the option to look elsewhere. The person is just feeding their baby. They can be exposed if they want. Its honestly none of your business.

[@tmammas8442]

I would have never thought of breastfeeding my baby in a dressing room if I'm out and about, that's an amazing idea your whole video is great thank you so much needed this!😭🥰💞

[@Julia84lv]

That's an important topic for me. Cool idea with the double clothes and how to tuck in a muslin. 👍🏻😃

[@mrsemilynorris]

Thank you so much for watching Julia xx

[@sarahrose1968]

Love this Emily! The changing room tip is fab. X

[@mrsemilynorris]

Thanks Sarah. Thank you so much for watching xx

[@LucieCH]

Once I was queuing at Primark customer services and my baby was getting irritable and the lady working there said "you can feed him in a changing room if you need to". No need to take a garment or anything. It was so good to get such a nice unsolicited offer.

[@melissan290]

I never leave a comment but I have to say thank you for this video! I needed to watch this video today. Always love watching your videos, so helpful and fun to watch. Lots of love and light to you Emily! 💕

[@mrsemilynorris]

Thanks Melissa. Glad to be one of your few comments!! Thank you so much for watching xx

[@loobz03]

Love this! I failed to BF both my kids (😩) but I love breastfeeding and want to high 5 all the mum's that rock it

[@mrsemilynorris]

Ah what a lovely thing to say. Thank you so much for watching xx

[@MissMovements]

There’s no such thing as failure! You fed your babies 🙌

[@annalauryn966]

Everyone where I'm from wears those cover, apron things. The "uddercovers". I like the nice ones with the stiff top piece so u can look into it wothout having to move it but if u know how to sew you could make one

[@midhunair241]

As a first time mum i was super uncomfortable feeding in public.. until i got a big nursing blanket.. it gave me soo mch confidence and im totaly at ease feeding in public ever since.my baby is 6 months old now. I bot this lovely cover called ' the breastfeeding blanket' ..

[@TheLipGoss]

Love the videos. My favourite tip is to wear a crop top under your clothes that you just pull up to cover you. x

[@mrsemilynorris]

Great idea. Thank you so much for watching xx

[@Alina-yo1ou]

I’ don’t even have a child why am I watching it?

[@doramadz6839]

In my culture women just openly breastfeed their babies because they have some superstitious beliefs about covering them (they'll get sick or die or something like that) but they embrace breastfeeding so much that if you're at your in law's house and your baby starts crying, your father in law will hand you the baby and tell you to feed him 😓😓😖 I love that they're feeding their babies, it's better than starving them and I believe that as long as they are doing their best they're doing more than enough

[@mrsemilynorris]

Here Here Dora!! Thank you so much for watching xx

[@kv8497]

What country?

[@sikupyte]

Really.. you should be proud!! And i am proud of you that you are feeding your baby by yourself!! I am too.. for 6months now :)

[@mrsemilynorris]

Thanks and well done you too, super proud! Thank you so much for watching xx

[@jamielouisecollier8677]

I purchased lots of breastfeeding /nursing tops and dresses originally from jojo maman bebe from ebay for a fraction of the price. They are so discreet and easy to use which made me feel much more confident and once I'm done I can resell them again! Thank you for your video, very helpful and empowering xxx

[@mrsemilynorris]

Great tip Jamie, thanks. Thank you so much for watching xx

[@MotherTouchchannel]

hahaha... thumbs up just like that lady... this was fun watching and listening to all these tips... i have fed my baby in airplane just before take off.. lol.. she started screaming little bit and i thought it would be better before takeoff... thanks for sharing.. :)

[@mrsemilynorris]

Go you! Thank you so much for watching xx

[@kellyt3602]

Love these tips! You have the exactly the same opinion as me about being respectful (and you don't need to be naked to feed your baby) I am definitely going to use the muslin under the bra strap method with this baby if I am out in public. I breastfed my daughter for 6 months but never in public but I am thinking with this baby (due in 4 weeks) I will probably have to feed in public as I will be more out and about more so will keep all your tips to mind. Thanks xx

[@mrsemilynorris]

Best of luck with the arrival in 4 weeks!! Thank you so much for watching kelly xx

[@joannameade1265]

Yes!!! Love this video! Be confident & proud that you are able to nourish your baby in the most natural way possible! I have 4 kids and I've always had problems with breastfeeding, except with my 4th (who is 4 months right now and I'm breastfeeding while watching the video) and it was extremely daunting to go out in public to nurse. One tip that I would recommend is to practice at home with the blanket/muslin/scarf or whatever cover-up you plan on using so that you're not fumbling with it for the first time in public. Practice doing it at the dinner table, in the living room, and any other room to get a sense of different chairs, different spaces, etc. and practice on both breasts. You'd be surprised to see how uncoordinated you can be with your non-dominant hand! LOL I practiced in front of a mirror as well to see what I was doing and what other people could see. That definitely helped. Then you just have to go out there and do it! Well done, Emily! Loved the video!

[@jessicaapsee7864]

If I could like this 100 times I would! I'm currently breastfeeding our 3 month old daughter as I watch this and these are great tips! Although she's my third I didn't breastfeed longer than a month with my other two due to lack of support! It's still nerve wracking feeding in public but I just think, how proud I am of her and I to still be breastfeeding and carry on 😊 xxx

[@margaretspence109]

We Scots rock. lol :-D Going into the changing rooms to feed is a great idea. I'd never have thought of that. I have to say I was so wondering what you were going to say when you said flash before continuing on to say people a smile. lol

[@mrsemilynorris]

OMG thats so funny cause when I was editing it I thought the same! xx

[@user-mq8km6iv4r]

This couldn't have come at a better time for me. I'm currently breastfeeding my one month old. I've come through cluster feeding, latching problems, extremely sore nipples. And now it's breastfeeding in public!! Still not 100% confident and am always worried she's going to need a feed at the worst time!!

[@mrsemilynorris]

Hi Siobhan. Easy for me to say, but just try not to worry. If you imagine something too much it will happen. It won't last forever, so try to cherish it as you will miss it one day. Thank you so much for watching xx

[@user-mq8km6iv4r]

Yeah anytime I feel stressed I just remind myself it won't last forever and I need to enjoy it. Can I ask, I thought you can't drink wine while breastfeeding. How do you make it work? Do you time when you drink and when you feed? X

[@laurawillgoose3570]

Love this video. I've sat in Costa and proudly breastfed my daughter. Got a couple of looks but didn't let it bother me. It's natural. Just used my cardigan as a bit of a cover.

[@seyiomonigho9894]

❤️

[@afosfos5509]

So important to tell new mothers to smile & be confident. I have a 7 week old & have had people give me so much unwanted advice & be totally rude & patronising. It's really unfair. Both me and my baby need time to learn & get to know eachother! From now on I'll smile, be confident & flip them the bird.

[@SJ_Strum]

Great tips Emily; I hated breastfeeding in public with my second baby but have it down to a fine art now! I use loads of these tips - feeding in the fitting rooms has changed my life! SJ x

[@samanthabullock20]

Really needed this video :) I'm determined to breastfeed and you've really inspired me! I'm three weeks into breastfeeding and absolutely loving it!! ❤️

[@CorrieLaurie]

Perfect timing! My first baby is 5 weeks old and this is so relevant to our lives! Haven't really gone out yet but these tips will help when we do, shortly!

[@mrsemilynorris]

Ah 5 weeks Corrie, I hope it helps. Enjoy you new arrival. Thank you so much for watching xx

[@themcnears]

great video! I also found it better to wear sport bras or softer bras as opposed to fidgeting with a nursing bra's clasps and flaps.

[@mrsemilynorris]

Great tip Tiffany. Thank you so much for watching xx

[@tiffanyroseevans7069]

I am so happy you made this I am having my second baby in 3 weeks!! I didn't breastfeed my first but I'm going to try this time and you give me so much confidence to see it though. Thank you x

[@mrsemilynorris]

Wow best of luck Tiffany with the birth, and hopefully the feeding but don't put any pressure on yourself either way. Thank you so much for watching xx

[@ruthdelgado8444]

I live in mexico and they are really rude when you breastfeed in public older men stare😥 I just rather stay at home or wait until i go home and hurry up to do my things

[@mrsemilynorris]

Ah what a shame Ruthy, this is really sad to hear. Stare back I say!! Thank you so much for watching xx

[@AGUSTERAN1]

Omg! I thought it was natural there. I'm from Ecuador and in there woman take both breasts out and feed in the buses, street, shops wherever the baby requests 🤣🤣🤣🤣, it's kind of funny as personally I cannot do it like that. Although here in the UK I have never had bad comments, only good experiences, and as Emily said just be respectful and that's it.

[@laurenlouisehatton92]

Thanks for the great advice I'm being induced next Thursday so couldn't have done this video at a better time :)

[@mrsemilynorris]

Ah wow Rani, best of luck. Is it bad that I am a little envious?!! don't tell Matt! Thank you so much for watching xx

[@Workandplaynails]

Thanks for the tips, I am a soon to be mum for the first time, and love the idea that I can try and utilise clothes I already own for breastfeeding by layering them. I agree that a lot of breastfeeding clothes are very expensive.

[@leahburhan9683]

That's one of the things my mum does from breastfeeding my baby sister she wears a vest under her shirt or jumper 😊❤️

[@angelaetter4894]

I needed to know how to breastfeed

[@rufarotizora5144]

This vids is a confidence booster to all mothers especially the new ones.

[@laurakelly1755]

Aww I’m so glad I found this.! I found it so hard and I always felt shameful doing it in public because I would get dirty looks sometimes as if I was doing something wrong ! About to have another baby and hoping to have even more confidence this time around. I loved hearing you talk about it and yes it can be stressful but shouldn’t be ! I enjoy reading the comments as well from other mommies who are confident . Helps me a lot ❤️☺️

[@sunnysummers3192]

Great tips. It's so hard when you're a new mom...and the tips and the support really help. It does get easier--but I recall sitting in my car to feed because I felt so uncomfortable. New moms especially will find this so helpful!

[@mrsemilynorris]

It is so hard, and definitely do what makes you feel most comfortable. Everyone is different, and without opinions the world would be a boring place right. Thanks for your comments. Thank you so much for watching xx

[@eveyohanah9540]

I've sadly just suffered a miscarriage at 6 weeks BUT we are planning on trying again as soon as we can and while I was pregnant I started watching your videos as it was my first pregnancy and they have helped calm so much anxiety! I feel like the next time I conceive I'm actually ready for what's ahead. So thank you! Xx

[@rocketamshameful2978]

You should get the d-penalty

[@emmavaughan7999]

She said that you would not eat your lunch in a toilet,I always do because i don’t have many friends .

[@MrsHible]

Lovely video great tips. I have up most respect for breastfeeding mums sadly it wasn't ment to be for me and my 4 month old. But a fed baby is a happy baby. Totally agree with you Emily it doesn't matter formula or breast xx

[@mrsemilynorris]

Here here. Whatever suits is the most important thing. Thank you so much for watching xx

[@annieparis8671]

Lol! First time I breastfed in public was at The Ivy in Kensington (London), I've never seen the wait staff go into panic mode sooooo fast!!!

[@pinkie20bags]

Great tips! The muslin tucked in the bra strap saved me exposing too much when I was wearing a dress on a day out recently 👍🏼😊 xx

[@ChristineWebs]

I'm not normally one to comment on videos, but I just want to say thank you! As a new mother I didn't feel quite comfortable in the role from the start, but watching your videos really helped me. It sounds silly, but you make me feel more confident and making me love being a mum so much more. You are so calm and have good tips I can relate to. So thank you! Lots of love to you and your family from Denmark :)

[@mrsemilynorris]

Wow thank you so so much xx

[@cherylglickman9563]

I've been caught out and done the changing room feed a few times 😂🤗 most bizarre place was coming home from holiday recently and feeding my son while waiting on our suitcases 😂👍 x

[@mrsemilynorris]

Haha but well done Cheryl . Thank you so much for watching xx

[@jodieedwards8768]

I will never cover up no matter how awkward I feel. Breastfeeding is normal and we need to feel more empowered to do it. You wouldn’t cover a bottle fed baby so I shan’t make my child feel as if he has something to be ashamed of and hide from

[@kelseyhopkins7169]

This past week I was walking through the airport while breastfeeding my daughter with a Muslin blanket tucked in my bra strap and I thought I was a genius for thinking of tucking it in my bra strap! It's seriously so much easier than using my nursing cover!

[@seyiomonigho9894]

Niceee ma'am be comfortable and confidence👍👍

[@taylorsaunaturel9312]

I saw a woman breast feeding in a cafe when I was 4 months pregnant with my first baby and I had to check myself as I realised I was staring and had to quickly look away, I think it was just pure curiosity and probably a bit of "see you can do it" reassuring myself, lucky was already showing and the lady smiled at me I think she realised it was nerves on my part 😳

[@earthdakini]

Aww what a lovely video, I’m a new grandma & I've just sent this to my daughter because we were talking about breast feeding in public this afternoon & she was saying that she was a little nervous. I’m sure this video will really help a lot 💖 Nanna W xxx

[@elenkristinmebergseim2377]

I am 11 but i love your vidios

[@fajer185]

thankyou so much for this video.. I definitely feed my baby with pride as I watched all your breastfeeding videos whilst pregnant and it gave me so much confident that people think my baby is not my first bcz im so comfortable feeding anywhere anytime! 👌❤👶🍼

[@mrsemilynorris]

Glad my videos have been of help. Thank you so much for watching xx

[@jenniewarbie]

These are such great tips for new breast feeding mummies. I really think surrounding yourself with fellow mummies who are breastfeeding is really helpful as you can gossip and ask each other questions. Also wanted to say that John Lewis is really great for breastfeeding e.g. separate room, water tank for drinking and comfy chairs. Thanks for the tips. Looking great as always Emily. (might have a small girl crush on you. 😉😶 sorry not sorry) xxxx

[@mrsemilynorris]

Thanks Jennie. John Lewis is a great tip, totally agree. Thank you so much for watching xx

[@saviajane]

I always watch videos when I'm feeding my baby and what a great video this was. Thanks Emily, especially for sharing/showing those outfits. Because when I'm shopping online I can't always understand the functionality of the top.

[@milliesos]

Im day 8 breastfeeding for the first time despite this being my 3rd baby. Thanks for these tips x

[@genesisguerra7572]

Love this video! I'm a new mom and it definitely has been hard for me when going out trying to feed my baby. I go straight to my car and feed him. And then I think I shouldn't shove myself in my car it's normal to feed your baby in public. I guess I'm just afraid of having someone tell me something or look at me wrong. But not no more!! I have right thank you so much for this encouraging video ❤️

[@mrs_sam_hussain5807]

omg what a great video love every tip and so important to can't wait to try few as am breastfeeding but think the whole world is looking at me his 4 months and I haven't really gone out because of it .just stay at home but honestly this really giving me little confident to do go out and live my life then just wait for husband thank you so much I do really look forward to ur videos I always learn something and I don't it always bring a smile on my face no matter how my day was xxxxx

[@mrsemilynorris]

Ah so sweet Sam. I know everyone is different, and I am not one for flaunting what I am doing, but it is actually such a natural thing to do and can be done in a very subtle way. Enjoy! Thank you so much for watching xx

[@hettieguerin4136]

Loved this video Emily! Breastfeeding has been such a struggle to me with my almost 9 month old baby boy, but I'm trying to hang in there and make it to a year. Thanks for your tips and would love to watch any other videos about breastfeeding tips/advice that you have to share. xx

[@mrsemilynorris]

However long you go Hettie you have done very well and should be proud. Thank you so much for watching xx

[@Yakeudatolechu]

Thank you for this video. I just had my baby last week and I'm currently breastfeeding but dreading to do it outside so your tips are very helpful and makes me feel less isolated about my breastfeeding choice!! Keep on going! ;)

[@mgsmith22]

I love this!!!!! I love breastfeeding and this time round I have done some extreme breastfeeding (on a trailer being pulled by a tractor/it's a small world ride at Disney 😂 you name it!!)

[@lisalea]

Thank you for the tip about tucking a blanket under your bra strap. That is going to make my life so much easier! I'm from Ontario btw :) Love your vids so much!

[@Laura-qk5jk]

I have breastfed both my babies in public and have been so lucky not to get any nasty comments or looks. I think as you said if you are confident and smile then no one should have an issue! Mothers should not have to feel like they are doing something wrong, your baby needs to eat, simple as!!!

[@mrsemilynorris]

Yes Laura, simple as! Great attitude and so nice to hear a positive story. Thank you so much for watching xx

[@jannaroanne39]

These tips are very encouraging. I've been a bit nervous in public but this video helped me yesterday when I tested it out. My son is 8 months old now and loves talking back to the TV when he sees your boys. Thanks a bunch, Emily!

[@AlanRPaine]

I don't understand why some people find breastfeeding a baby objectionable. My daughter-in-law's attitude with her baby is to pay no attention to who might be watching. She showed me a cartoon featuring a useful blanket for when people nearby didn't like the sight of a baby being fed. The mother in the cartoon threw the blanket over the watchers. I once saw in Israel a mother using a nursing blanket with a metal hoop at the top so that the baby wasn't completely smothered and could still make eye contact with the mother.

[@SoSallyo]

I've never once used a muslin, scarf or coverup. I don't think they're necessary to be respectful. Unless you want to use one to make yourself more comfortable x

[@mrsemilynorris]

Yes each to their own, whatever makes you feel most comfortable. Thank you so much for watching xx

[@leonelajaramillo682]

I'm a FTM here, my first born is due in December. I've been watching all of your videos to prepare myself all the changes that are going to happen. Thank you!

[@chanelle7484]

This was super helpful! Just had my second baby and it's my first time nursing. This weekend really showed me how un-nursing friendly places are here in the US. It was so stressful!! This helped though so thank you❤️☺️

[@leslie_francine]

It is so hard for me to cover up and also see so my baby can get a good latch. I'm unable to just latch her "blind." Do you have any recommendations for latching without looking? Because if I look, my whole boob ends up being out! I'm just afraid that people will see my entire boob even for a second.

[@mrsemilynorris]

Is your baby young? They will get the hang of it so hopefully this won't be a problem. Thank you so much for watching xx

[@shardae5219]

Leslie Obholz You can buy breastfeeding covers that have an 'opening' in the top that allow you to see your baby and get them to latch without exposing your whole breast. I found them really useful in the early days. They are shaped like an apron that goes over your head with a piece of 'boning' in the top. All the best

[@Dotfsh]

Flash them A genuine smile. 😂 Sorry, i thought for a split second that first bit was the end of your statement 😂😂 flash them so they’ll leave you alone? Lol ok!

[@goblefarms681]

Thank you so much for posting this. I have a 1 month old daughter and I get so nervous about strangers seeing my boobs in public!! This makes me feel more confident!!

[@robinastips6986]

Great tips. I remember when I nursed my babies , the first was hard and took like 3 mos to get the hang of it. After that it was so easy. My second was a breeze. Great job! You're doing great!!!!

[@rosea164]

Is it only me who finds the background music annoying? It is really not necessary

[@MsLucyMoon]

Up to how many months do you breastfeed your babies? Can you please give some tips on how do you stop breastfeeding your kids. Thank you! 😊

[@nmorgan01]

I know you cannot ask a breastfeeding mom to leave a public place when she's feeding, but are people allowed to ask you to cover up?

Have you ever had to pump in public? I will have to do that in a few weeks and I’ve never done that before. Any suggestions? My only thought was to pump in my car. I have a double electric pump.

What country do you live in? I am in American, well right now Japan because my husband's in the military. But sometimes it's hard to know What still applys to me.

love the advice of done the change room b4 too..queistion where did u purchase your punk ruffle breastfeeding top? its lovley!

[@haleygrigg9571]

So funny, when you came to talking about people staring you said "flash them a..." And I fully expected you to say breast 😂 but you said smile instead and I laughed out loud. Here in the U.S. "flash" means show 'em the goods. I did not expect to get comedy when I clicked your video today so thanks for that 😁

Still haven't managed to muster up the courage to feed in public yet, though I did at the pub once. Stupidly we thought sitting at the back would be less noticeable and ended up right by the toilets! Cue all the beer bellies men walking past having a good old nosy but I've fed in lots of changing rooms! Best idea ever! Also where did you get your nursing tops from! Especially the baby pink one and the navy blue? They're gorgeous! xx

Thank you so much for this video Emily! I've only just started to gain confidence in breastfeeding in public (I used to being expressed milk in a bottle to warm up but one day my son decided that wouldn't be enough so I had to do what I had to do 😂). It's good to know that it's illegal to discriminate against a breastfeeding mother - I had a look and it is also illegal in New Zealand where I live so I feel confident now if anyone ever tries to challenge me about it! Although I have never had any negative feedback from anyone about it 😊 love your videos so much as a new mum to a 12 week old! Really helped as my family are still back in the UK so I needed the support! Xxxx

Awesome video! Im not even pregnant and nervous. I live in the u.s. and I know most people don't care but sometime crazy stuff happens and it's so frustrating to me! It's just boobs and a baby eating!

[@budpetsman2505]

Why wud they have to cover up? If anyone would say anything to my wife in public I wud break their face. BTW she never had anyone say anything or look bad

[@nilak.s617]

I agree with covering your breasts while breastfeeding, not bc it's vulgar but because it might be more comfortable for the mom. Some people would stare and some would even put on disapproving face, and these would make the mom uncomfortable. Better avoid these situations.

“Flash them.. a smile” I wondered what you were going to say then 😂 thanks for the tips! I’m 22 weeks pregnant and found this very helpful xx

I have another question which bothers me. If I go to a public toilet - where do I keep my baby ? I cant imagine leaving him in stroller just outside the door of public toilet (cabine) cause so many cases in my country when some mental people just kidnap babies from strollers... And obviously I cant taky the whole stroller (no space inside even for me) or baby himself with me (I will need free hands to do the job). Any tips ?

[@laceygonzalez6446]

I am pro breastfeeding moms. All the way. I'm having my third baby and plan on it again. But that being said. We had a guest from Argentina stay with us years ago. And it was thanksgiving. We were all eating at the table and this lady whips her boob out for all to see (my husband included) and just feeds her baby. It made me very uncomfortable. And him as well. I even gave her my nursing cover, in the nicest way and let her know that here it's best to cover up. She kept it. And never used it.

[@marykevermeulen2593]

was actually also watching this while breastfeeding. I actually bought formula milk to give an emergency bottle when in public. but I feel so motivated after watching this that I really feel like eh... if you accidentally see some skin it's okay... you see way more on TV :D gotta suck it up and give my little girl what she needs.

[@katelh9]

Brilliant video Emily, it is so important for new mums to feel comfortable breastfeeding in public, I am still feeding my 27 month old son, although just morning and before bed now, but not once did anyone say anything to me when I was feeding him in public. Have you ever thought as training as a breastfeeding supporter? I think you would be brilliant.

Another awesome video! You should dye your hair brunette. I think the contrast with your eyes and light skin tone, would make you look very elegant. Try it! :)
