So proud to be an Australian

[Sarah88]

Me and my friend went shopping yesterday, she has a 5mth old and we both breast feed. Anyways we were sitting in the food court feeding her 2.5yr old daughter and Savannah wanted a feed. So I fed her, then my friend fed her daughter; then I looked over afterwards to see another mother feeding her baby.

It made me so proud to live in a country where people can bf in public and not worry about what people are going to say to them or being asked to leave a certain place. Just had to post

*This isn't a go at any other coutries, i've just heard of some people who are scared to bf in public because of what other people will and do say*

I was at the Whole Foods in London a few months ago, and I was eating in their food court and I swear there were 5-6 of us moms nursing there. It was awesome!!

 

[Sarah88]

Now that sounds like a good reason for me to move to Australia!!!

 

[Sarah88]

Come on over, plenty of room

Im australian and wish i was back there !

 

[Sarah88]

You should come back, it's a great place! Why'd you move anyways?

 

[oOKayOo]

I didnt choose to move i was 11 at the time and my mother moved us.
My brother has gone back and so has my dad.
Me and OH moved out in 2005 out there , but OH only had a working visa then , there quite strict with Immigration so we needed to come back to work on our visa over here. Anyway cut along story short , by gaining proof we have got ourself in aload of debt which we have to pay off before we can start the applicaton Long process , but well worth it. Australia is just brilliant!

Would be great if you came back! You should move to SE QLD with me!

We probably move back to Cairns , although i also like to move to Brisbane as i really enjoyed staying there and lots of things for the children to do with all the theme parks ect!

Lol, it's not that country here. Still plenty of shops, although theres only a couple of major shopping centres opposed to plenty in bris.

Ooof too hot for me my family is Swedish and I like it cold cold cold! But way to go with the aussie breast feeders! I cant wait to do it - not going to do it on purpose to prove a point but just wait for the time when Leo is hungry and I am out! I may practice the whole muslin thing at home though!
