It is very difficult to go out with a baby.. Especially those under six months.. They can't be even fed solids.. Preparing formula required utmost hygiene and it is difficult to achieve that when one is traveling.. Difficult(not impossible).. So breastfeeding them is a natural choice..
Not every establishment has a feeding room.. So what should the mother do? Young infants need to be fed every two hours.. Sick babies are sometimes even more demanding and suckle just for comfort..
Breastfeeding in public is perfectly fine.. Can't deny a baby it's nourishment just because a few grown-ups feel offended by something that has totally nothing to do with them.
The comments don't surprise me.. Going by the ever increasing incidences of violence against women all over the world, it is a tall order to expect people not to sexualise something that is pure and natural.
