There's still plenty of stigma surrounding public breastfeeding, with many of us thinking twice about feeding our child when we're out and about.
But Naomi Jael is urging us not to.
The German mum (21) recently posted a photo of herself breastfeeding at a friend’s wedding, while laughing away and having a laugh.
Beneath it, she spread a fabulous message.
“When you are at a wedding, wear fancy dresses and high heels and your baby gets hungry,” she wrote. “Well…You give no s**ts and feed the kid.”
Unsurprisingly, the snap went viral and now has over 5,000 likes.
But not everyone was supportive. Once the negative comments started trickling in, she edited her comment to address her detractors.
And once again, she chose to make her point with humour.
“Whoever gets mad about this,” she began, “I also fed my son at the church ceremonie IN the church.”
She also grabbed the opportunity to highlight how some countries are much more open-minded about the whole thing than others.
“Here in Germany, people don’t get mad about it. It is NORMAL. Nothing rude or bad about it. This is why I have breasts! Cause God gave me boobs for feeding by babies.”
We applaud Naomi for standing up and saying what needs to be said. You go, girl!
