Now I'm not at all a religious person, but I found this article very positive.
CNN) - Under the iconic paintings in the Sistine Chapel on Sunday, Pope Francis told mothers that it's acceptable to breastfeed their children in public, even in holy sites like churches.
Children's voices, even when crying, make "the most beautiful choir of all," Francis said during a service in which he baptized 32 children.
"Some will cry because they are uncomfortable or because they are hungry," the Pope said. "If they are hungry, mothers, let them eat, no worries, because here, they are the main focus," he said.
The Pope's remarks echo statements he made to an Italian newspaper in December in which he tied breastfeeding to the problem of global hunger.

However, I wear nursing shirts or nursable shirts 24/7 with LO. Her dress was NOT BF friendly and would probably have to be halfway removed to nurse....
