PITTSBURGH (KDKA) — A local artist and teacher at Carnegie Mellon University has come up with an idea to support mothers who are harassed for nursing in public.
Jill Miller envisions something she calls “The Milk Truck.” She wants to buy an ice cream truck and outfit it with a giant breast on the roof.
Ugh! I heard about this on Bratfree. This is just way too much. Ok maybe not the truck idea but the boob on top ain't happening. Imagine someone with a toddler asking their mom what that is or having your teenage son drooling over it like it was porn. That wouldn't go over so well. It would be breastfeesing moms vs. mom with toddlers, Tweens and teens.
If a woman is showing so much boob in public that she's asked to leave, then she needs to learn to cover up better while nursing. I doubt it is enough of an issue to need a truck.

the BF moms would be all for it until their baby is a toddler with a hundred questions.

Yep, contradictions. What I don't understand is why some BF moms just can't use a pump and a bottle. I'm sure there are places that sell them for reasonable prices.

you wouldn't understand would you? bottles have to be refrigerated, for one thing. For another thing, why bother when you bring your boobs with you? I'm not anti-breast feeding. I think it can be done in a modest way. This truck seems like fake outrage to me. Making a big deal out of something that isn't a big deal.
Give me a break. There's nothing more important going on for them to get their panties in a twist about? I'm all for breast feeding, I think it's great, but what's the big deal about covering up? It's not hard to do at all. Sometimes I think people just want to create controversy. I mean, urinating is a natural act too. Are we going to have a truck driving around with a big penis on top to demonstrate the right to pee wherever you want to? Some people need to really get a life.

Why should she if she is with the baby and can nurse?
Nursing is natural and there is NO reason why anyone should be upset seeing a mom nursing. Most moms do cover up. When I was nursing, you probably would never have known that was happening although as babies get a bit older, it is harder to cover up.
At any rate, it's the public's hangup and nursing moms should not have to pay the price for *your* discomfort on this one.
